Definition: case, or other protective housing, provided by the equipment manufacturer to mount the equipment and to protect it from accidental damage, and occasionally from EMC or environmental effects

Note 1 to entry: The equipment housing can offer protection to personnel, e.g. from electric shock. Where the equipment housing provides the full required environmental protection, then it is treated as a cubicle to define the relevant environmental parameters. The equipment housing normally contains only a single supplier’s equipment, and is only a part of a signalling or telecommunications system.
