[RE-wrenches] Battery Fuse Locations

[Drake]

Hello Wrenches,

I'm studying the NEC for a rectification exam, and came across this 
little gem. Can anyone explain what the following code rule is saying 
from 240.21 H, (Overcurrent Protection, Location in the circuit)?

(H) Battery Conductors. Overcurrent protection shall be
permitted to be installed as close as practicable to the storage
battery terminals in an unclassified location. Installation of the
overcurrent protection within a hazardous (classified) location
shall also be permitted.

It seems to say we can't do something, but we can anyway. The 
Handbook provides no clarification.

Thanks,

Drake
