All:

Regarding UL 1950 section 6.6 "Protection against overvoltage from power line
crosses": this requirement is peculiar to the UL / CSA versions of the IEC 950 /
60950 standard. 

1) Is this because (as I've heard) countries other than US / Canada do not route
telecommunication wiring on the same distribution poles as AC power? 

2) If the answer to that question is yes, what about underground cabling in such
countries; are power and telecom wiring segregated in that case?

What I'm really wrestling with is whether we need to be concerned about power
line cross / induction issues outside of North America.

Thanks for the help.
