这段标准怎么理解？

Socket-outlets shall not be permitted in equipment intended for connection by flexible cord
except in the following circumstances:

(a) Where specifically accepted by an approvals authority in those cases where there is little
likelihood of cascading of similar equipment which could result in circuit overloading and
extension of fault conditions.

(b) Where permitted by an individual Approval and test specification or by National Wiring
Rules.

(c) Where the equipment is basically providing a switching or control function.

This does not preclude the use of socket-outlets or other facilities for connections within the
equipment.

请教：
1.上面是澳洲电器标准里面的一段文字，请各位大概讲解一下；
2.文字里面的Socket-outlet到底如何理解，插座？输出端子？输出端口？.....

应该是插座，可以参考以下标准：
IEC60884-1 Plugs and socket-outlets for household and similar purposes
Part 1: General requirements
