It describes the difference between the environmental conditions the product wil meet during its life, described by the classes in IEC Publications 721-3, and conditions of test used to assure that the product will work satisfactorily under such environmental conditions. The use of IEC Publication 721-3 in the design limitation of conditions and protection is also included.
