free market customers / (customers in) protected categories Explanation: Italy has been trying to "liberalise" its energy market for some years now and create a completely free market where prices are not regulated. At present customers are divided into three categories "liberi" (free), "tutelati" (generally translated as protected categories) and then "salvaguardati" (generally translated as safeguarded categories). Most consumers, like me, are in the "tutelati" group. While most developed countries have tried to liberalise their energy markets, as would be expected none is in precisely the same specific position as Italy with precisely these categories, so no equivalent translation is available (I know cos I've looked).
