It follows from the principles mentioned above that almost every electrical installation the
conductor for mutual connection exposed conductive parts, extraneous parts, and earth,
besides the live (phase) conductors, shall installed. This conductor called protective
conductor and identified letters PE. These rules follow from the purpose protective

Protective conductors well the terminals connecting them shall sufficient cross-
