6、60364 describes how live conductors are protected by one or more devices for automatic interruption of the supply in the event of overload(see clause 433)and short-circuits(see clause 434)except in cases where the overcurrent is limited in accordance with clause 436 or by the conditions described in
7、 433.3,433.5 or 434.3 are met.Further,protection against overload and against short-circuits shall be co-ordinated in accordance with clause 435.NOTE 1 Live conductors protected against overload in accordance with clause 433 are considered to be protected also against faults likely to cause overcurr
8、ents of a magnitude similar to overload currents.NOTE 2 The requirements of this standard do not take account of external influences.For the application of protective measures in relation to conditions of external influences,see 410.3.4 of IEC 60364-4-41 and clause 422 of IEC 60364-4-42.NOTE 3 Prote
9、ction of conductors according to this standard does not necessarily protect the equipment connected to the conductors.NOTE 4 Flexible cables connecting equipment by plugs and socket-outlet to fixed installations are not in the scope of this part and for this reason are not necessarily protected agai
