Reading only the information in these messages. . . one really stupid
but *possible* interpretation of the wording “If an overcurrent
protection device is provided, it shall be within the equipment”, would
be that if an overcurrent protection device -- a mains circuit breaker,
say -- is provided OUTSIDE the equipment . . . it must be removed!

Thank you for the answer.
It is the word "if" in the beginning of the sentence that to me indicates
that there is the other possibility "if not" as well.
Edition 1 of 61010-1 (from 1993) had a somewhat clearer wording stating that
there must be an overcurrent protection device in the equipment, and the
changing of the wording could indicate that the requirements had changed.
Thanks and regards,
Niels
