7.3 Operation on grounded infeed
Short-circuit and overload protection
Various measures as protection against short-circuits and overloads are required for setting
up a full installation. The nature of the components and the degree to which the required
measures are binding depends on the IEC (DIN VDE) regulation applicable to your plant
configuration. The table refers to the following figure and compares the IEC (DIN VDE)
regulations.
