Household and Similar Electrical Appliances - Safety - Part 1: General Requirements
Also Known As:
Specific items must meet the general electrical safety requirements outlined in the CAN/CSA-E60335-1/4E-03 standard. This standard covers electrical devices with rated voltages of no more than 250 V for single-phase devices and 600 V for other devices that are used in the home or for other purposes. It is crucial to remember that this standard's requirements only apply when a particular end-use product is expressly mentioned in its corresponding product standard. The general guidelines in this Part 1 Standard may be modified or supplemented by each particular product standard to include specific needs for various product kinds.
It is crucial to note that the applicability of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, should not be supplanted by any Part 2 IEC Standard and that this standard is applicable to equipment that is designed to be installed and used in compliance with the regulations of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I. CSA SPE-2000 provides a helpful summary of the equipment-related criteria of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I for manufacturers creating products for use in Canada.
