1.1 Aim

This Standard describes the steps and components of a mandatory energy, water, and GHG emissions reporting requirement for large existing buildings to help standardize their design and implementation, reducing burden and complexity for both AHJs and building owners subject to such requirements.  

1.2 Application

This Standard supports the consistent design and implementation of mandatory building energy, water, and GHG emissions reporting requirements for existing buildings.

While enacting a reporting requirement can be a starting point for the development of other policies and programs (e.g., building performance standards, labelling), this Standard focuses exclusively on building energy, water, and GHG emissions reporting.

1.3 Inclusions

This Standard applies to all buildings with the following major occupancies as classified in the National Building Code:

Group A — assembly occupancies;

Group B — care, treatment, and detention occupancies;

Group C — residential occupancies;

Group D — business and personal services occupancies;

Group E — mercantile occupancies;

Group F — industrial occupancies; and

any mixed-use building in which the sum of the gross floor area (GFA) of these occupancies is 50% or greater of the property’s total GFA.

All properties that fall into one of these groups are referred to in this Standard as “covered buildings”Note: Annex A provides an overview of these major occupancies and specific property types.

1.4 Exclusions

This Standard does not apply to buildings classified as

Group G — agriculture occupancies;

those having a GFA of less than 929 m2 (10 000 ft2); or

ground-oriented homes.

1.5 Users

This Standard is intended to assist municipal and regional governments in their capacity as AHJs over the regulation of buildings across their communities. Its broad intent is to standardize and simplify the process of complying with such requirements, especially for owners of portfolios that span multiple jurisdictions.

Other public sector organizations might also find this Standard of interest but should consider that not all aspects of the Standard might apply to their particular needs or authorities.

1.6 Terminology

In this Standard, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the Standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard.

Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.

1.7 Units of measurement

The values given in SI units are the units of record for the purposes of this Standard. The values given in parentheses are for information and comparison only.

Authorities having Jurisdiction (AHJ) across Canada, provinces, all have differences in the limits and the parameters of wind turbine noise/sound levels. This CSA Group adoption of the IEC TS 61400-11-2 in its current form, allows AHJs with the option to update the technical specification and the methodologies.

This technical specification is useful for general guidance. Refer to the local regulations and procedures before implementing the methodologies in this technical specification.

IEC Scope

This part of IEC 61400-11 presents measurement procedures, that enable the sound characteristics of a wind turbine to be determined at receptor (immission) locations. This involves using measurement methods appropriate to sound immission assessment at far-field locations of a wind turbine or wind farm. The procedures described are different in some  respects from those that would be used for noise assessment from other industrial sound sources in environmental noise impact assessments. They are intended to facilitate characterization of wind turbine sound with respect to a range of wind speeds and directions. 
The procedures present methodologies that will enable the sound immission and sound characteristics of wind turbines to be described in a consistent and accurate manner. These procedures include the following aspects: 
• location of acoustic measurement positions (receptor position); 
• requirements for the acquisition of acoustic, meteorological, and associated wind turbine operational data;
• analysis of the data obtained and the content for the data report; and
• definition of specific acoustic parameters, and associated descriptors which are used for making environmental assessments.
This document is not restricted to wind turbines of a particular size or type. The procedures described in this document allow for the thorough description of the sound characteristics and sound immissions from wind turbines. 

This clause of Part 1 is applicable, except as follows:

1.6

In Canada, the requirements in this standard generally address class of workmanship in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code (CE Code), Part I, and where applicable, minor combustible components in the National Building Code of Canada.

1.1

This Standard applies to flexible metal conduit and liquid-tight flexible metal conduit, trade sizes 12 (3/8) to 103 (4), excluding 14 (7/16), intended for use as a metal raceway for the installation of conductors in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I. In addition, this Standard applies to special purpose flexible metal conduit, trade sizes 10 (5/16) and 14 (7/16), intended for other applications requiring the conductors to be enclosed in a flexible metal raceway.

1.2

Liquid-tight flexible metal conduit covered by this Standard is provided with an overall thermoplastic jacket that is recognized for use at a maximum temperature of 60 °C, 75 °C, or 105 °C.

Note: For conduit sizes in this Standard, the metric trade designator is given first, with the trade size in inches following in parentheses.

1.3

The values given in SI (metric) units are the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

1.4

In this Standard, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard.

Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.

Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements.

Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.

1.1 This Standard is intended to be read together with Annex A, Ref. No. 1. The requirements of Annex A, Ref. No. 1 apply unless modified by this Standard.

1.1

This Standard applies to rigid PVC (unplasticized) conduit, elbows, bends, and couplings, intended for use at a continuous operating temperature of 75 °C, for the installation of wires and cables in accordance with the Rules of C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, for ordinary locations.

1.2

The products covered by this Standard are not threaded and are intended to be joined together by couplings using a suitable solvent cement.
