Is it the CSA standard you bought? I bought the one that was advertised as 70 pages. The breakdown is: 1 page: Cover 1 page: Legal Notice 1 page: Advertising the update service 1 page: Blank 1 page: Title 1 page: Copyright notice 2 pages: Table of contents 6 pages: List of committee members 1 page: Preface 1 page: Blank 1 page: Scope 5 pages: Definitions 16 pages: Standards 3 pages: Informative Annex 6 pages: Checklist 15 pages: History of major changes of the code 2 pages: Model guide for enforcement 3 pages: Minimum requirements 1 page: Bibliography 1 page: Blank 1 page: Recycled paper notice
There is some duplication between the checklist and the standards, as you would expect.
I've never been excited about the ability of CSA to produce a legal document and now I'm doubtful about their ability to stay out of the hands of the class-action lawyers. I'd like to sell 70 boxes of electrical parts, some of them empty and others containing just the name of the part. At least the recycled paper notice shouldn't have been counted on a copy that I down-loaded.
Then I put the print both sides option print in the wrong way in the printer and every second page is upside down.
But now I see I should suggest painted devices are not really acceptable
and I was shocked i was charged HST.
At least I feel comfortable about what CSA expects for a existing residence fr safety. I am a bit surprised they didn't get into detail about light fixtures and 60 degree wiring
I wonder when Home inspectors will be qualified to tell their clients about the requirements in this CSA Document. Are they going to have to inform the realtor and homebuyer that painted over switches and receptacles are not compliant with this document ? I also wonder where I can purchase a receptacle tension measuring device
