For this reason, itis recommended that, henceforth, in technical documentation, relztence should no longer be made to DIN 50048 but to DIN EN 10.204 and that the designation of certticates be changed as follows (example): (Otd designation: Certificate DIN $0049 - 3.18 or DIN 5004S inspection certificate B.
