Thank you for the answer. It is the word "if" in the beginning of the sentence that to me indicates that there is the other possibility "if not" as well.
Edition 1 of 61010-1 (from 1993) had a somewhat clearer wording stating that there must be an overcurrent protection device in the equipment, and the changing of the wording could indicate that the requirements had changed.
