These substantiate V2L availability and the output rating only. They do not establish the output’s neutral-earth (floating/bonded) behaviour, which stays “Not confirmed” until bench-verified.

Before relying on this for backup
The single most safety-critical unknown is the output's neutral-earth behaviour. Treat the output as floating (no RCD protection until bonded) unless it is proven otherwise on the actual adapter. The changeover and earthing are competent-person work — see the cornerstone guide and floating vs bonded outputs.
