Indirect contact is more insidious than direct contact, as it may occur
even during the reasonable use of electrical equipment. Safety is
carried out by systematically applying measures of protection against
both types of contacts, which might occur during the common interaction
between a person and an electrical equipment. Protection against
direct contact, also referred to as basic protection, is achieved with effective
separation of persons from live parts, whereas protection against
indirect contact, also referred to as fault protection, is accomplished by
automatically disconnecting the supply. In some specific situations,
discussed later in this chapter, fault protection can also be carried out
without disconnection of supply.1
