This Standard covers electrical safety requirements for 120 V cord-connected single circuit wiring systems for residential and commercial use and for use with free standing interconnected tables, provided with communication, video, and/or power receptacles that are intended for frequent setup and breakdown.

1.2
The requirements apply to powered tables connected to 15 A or 20 A, 120 V (single phase) branch circuits, for use in non hazardous locations, in accordance with the Rules of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.

1.3
The requirements do not apply to tables employing multi-circuit electrical systems, tables that are integral to an office panel system, kiosks, carts and utility stands, or wired cabinets. The powered tables covered may be subject to dismantling and re-assembly.

1.4
This Standard covers the requirements for protective routing of communication circuits.

1.5
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.

ASME A17.8/CSA B44.8 applies to elevators permanently installed in a wind turbine tower to provide vertical transportation of authorized personnel and their tools and equipment only.

Such elevators are typically subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity variations, and substantial horizontal motions where, by reason of their limited use and the types of construction of the structures served, full compliance with ASME A17.1/CSA B44 Part 2 is not practicable or necessary.

1.1.1 Effective date

The requirements of this edition and subsequent addenda to the Standard are effective as of the date noted on the copyright page of this document. The authority having jursidiction will establish the effective date for its local regulations.

Draft Amendment to C22.1

This Standard applies to occupational diving, hyperbaric facility, and remotely operated vehicle (ROV) operations conducted in connection with all types of work and employment and describes the requirements for minimum competency levels for all personnel directly associated with the identified techniques of diving or ROV operations.

Canadian safety and health legislation requires that all workers be competent to perform the work assigned to them. It requires competency in both the theory and use of the type of diving apparatus or ROV employed.

This Standard has been established to provide diver and ROV training facilities and the diving and ROV industry with a uniform minimum level of competency necessary for the various levels of diver and ROV techniques. This level of competency will allow the diver or ROV pilot/technician to safely and competently complete the specific tasks required of occupational divers or ROV personnel.

Note: It is recognized that certain underwater tasks can require specialized codes of practice. It is possible that competency levels that differ from the requirements of this Standard will be acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction.

1.1
This Standard covers fibrocement Type 1 (Class 3000) and Type 2 (Class 4000) pipe and pipe fittings for installation in gravity-flow systems inside and outside of buildings, above and below grade.

1.2
This Standard includes specifications for material, dimensions, crushing strength, chemical resistance, and joint tightness. Methods of marking to indicate compliance with these requirements are included. Recommended installation practice is given in Annex A. Suitability of material composition is given in Annex B.

1.3
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.
