Explanation:
Ithink you'll find it's nothing to do with tempering, nor climatic ruggedization, but rather EMC hardening; but I think the expression is valid all the same, and of course, all credit must go to Pamkrin for the answer; I merely wanted to check in with these comments.

It basically means that the generator doesn't need any additional external protection, as it is already inherently protected in itself.
