SELV and FELV Explanation: V = Veilig, Z = Zeer Explanation: VZ-ketens (V = Veilig, Z = Zeer) lage spanning (see web reference) The F has something to do with safety e.g. failsafe or functional. As you possibly know these are old terms and have been replcaed by the English terms SELV and FELV where F=functional The second refernce gives the British Standards BS codes for both if relevant.

Do not translate Explanation: As the context states, FZ and VZ have been succeeded by SELV resp. FELV. So just use the full text for SELV and FELV, and leave FZ and VZ as-is: FV is now FELV (Functional Extra Low Voltage) VZ is now SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or (Separated Extra Low Voltage) See Wikipedia article on Extra Low Voltage.
