45.—(1) Where a notified body or an approved body—
(a)has carried out a conformity assessment, a reassessment of conformity or a periodic inspection; and
(b)requires the conformity marking to be affixed to transportable pressure equipment, a valve or an accessory which is complete or is in a state permitting final assessment,
that body shall ensure that the conformity marking is affixed in a visible, easily legible and indelible fashion.
(2) No person shall affix any marking to transportable pressure equipment, a valve or an accessory which is likely to render the meaning or form of the conformity marking misleading.
(3) Any other marking may be affixed to transportable pressure equipment, a valve or an accessory provided that the visibility and legibility of the conformity marking is not thereby reduced.
