THE IECEx SCHEME IN CANADA Canadian Regulations and Access to the Market Presented by : Dave Adams, Technical Advisor, CSA International Welcome to the presentation on North American Electrical Safety

Overview of the Canadian Electrical Safety System TOPICS Overview of the Canadian Electrical Safety System Canadian Certification The IECEx Scheme in Canada In this presentation we will cover a general overview of North American safety, then we will go into specific details of Canadian and United States systems and how they work together.

Canadian Electrical Safety System The Federal Government is NOT the Regulatory Authority for Electrical Safety There is NO single Canadian Regulatory Authority Canada’s 10 Provinces and 3 Territories are the Legislated Regulatory Authorities for Electrical Safety in Canada As a result, there are 13 separate Electrical Safety Regulatory Authorities.

Canadian Electrical Safety System Provinces and Territories have jurisdiction over Electrical Safety – Regulatory Authorities This is done through legislations – Provincial Acts and/or Statutes (legal framework) Provincial and Territorial Regulations give regulatory requirements and define Codes/Standards, CO’s, Chief Inspector roles and responsibilities, and enforcement

Canadian Electrical Safety System Federal Government can influence the Canadian Electrical Safety System in two ways; By negotiating/signing international trade agreements which impact Provincial/Territorial jurisdictions, and; Through the Standards Council of Canada (SCC), a federal Crown Corporation with a mandate to coordinate standards activities in Canada

Canadian Electrical Safety System In practice, the 13 jurisdictions are very similar Every Province and Territory adopts and enforces the same Installation Code, CSA Standard C22.1, The Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 (CEC, Part 1) Some Provinces/Territories make amendments to the CEC prior to adoption

Canadian Electrical Safety System Acceptance of Certification Organizations is also under Provincial/Territorial regulations Certification Organizations must be accepted under each Provincial/Territorial regulation before their certification marks are recognized in those jurisdictions Regulations typically state, “No electrical equipment can be used, offered for sale or otherwise distributed unless it has been certified by an acceptable certification organization”.

Canadian Electrical Safety System Acceptable Certification Agency Accredited by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) Note: Scope is important, not all CO’s are accredited in all product areas Accepted under each Provincial/Territorial regulation Required to apply a small “c” identifier adjacent to their registered certification mark to indicate the product complies with a standard that is compatible with the CEC Also, must have a recall procedure in place to ensure unsafe products are removed from the marketplace in a timely manner.

Canadian Electrical Safety System The Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, (CSA Standard C22.1) deals only with electrical installations CEC Part II, a separate set of Standards published by CSA, gives the requirements and specifications regarding the design of electrical equipment Part II Standards are referenced in the Appendix of the CEC, Part I

Canadian Electrical Safety System All electrical equipment must be evaluated for electrical and fire safety, what we call the Ordinary Location requirements (Standards) In addition, equipment for use in explosive atmospheres must also be evaluated to the applicable Hazardous Locations requirements (Standards)

Canadian Electrical Safety System At present, there are two independent Area Classification systems in Canadian, and two sets of National Standards for Hazardous Locations equipment; Existing “2-Division” Area Classifications and Standards Adopted “3-Zone” Area Classifications and Standards (IEC60079 Series) Equipment Certified to either set of Standards is acceptable in Canada

Canadian Electrical Safety System All new installations within Canada must use the “3-Zone Area Classification system Existing installations may choose to retain the existing “2-Division” system or re-classify to the “3-Zone” system The Canadian Electrical Code, Part I contains a cross-reference guide which allows the use of “Division” equipment in “Zones” and vise versa

Canadian Certification Certified Hazardous Locations Equipment for use in Canada; The Certification Organization must be SCC accredited and accepted under each Provincial/Territorial regulation – with the proper Scope The Equipment must be evaluated to the applicable Part II Standards, for both Ordinary and Hazardous Locations The equipment must bear the registered Certification Mark of that Certification Agency

Canadian Certification The Ordinary Location requirements (Standards); Apply to Hazardous Location equipment and must be evaluated by the CO – Self declaration is not an option in Canada Apply whether the HazLoc evaluation is done to the existing “2-Division” AND/OR the “3-Zone” requirements

Canadian Certification The Ordinary Location requirements (Standards); Will, in most cases, require the internal components to meet CSA requirements

Canadian Certification The Ordinary Location requirements (Standards); 80% of equipment is either Process Control Equipment (evaluated to either 1010.1 or CSA Std 142), or Industrial Control (evaluated to CSA Std 14) CSA Std 0, General Requirements applies to all equipment Other Stds may be referenced by either Ordinary or Hazardous Locations Std Some “specialized” equipment may require consultation with CSA International to determine the applicable Stds.

Canadian Certification The Ordinary Location requirements (Standards) can be addressed in a number of ways; IECEE CB Scheme reports; 1010.1 and 950; Assessed by an ExTL/ExCB as part of the Canadian Deviations; Assessed by CSA International which, when combined with a registered ExTR, would be sufficient for CSA Certification

Canadian Certification Canadian Certification means that all of the applicable requirements of the relevant Part II Standards have been evaluated by an accepted Certification Organization and bears that organizations registered Certification Mark

IECEx Scheme in Canada PRESENT The IECEx CoC and/or Mark is NOT recognized as an acceptable Certification Mark Canadian ExTL/ExCB can use IECEx ExTR’s as a basis for issuing “fast track” National Certification The Canadian Deviations (Ordinary Location requirements) must be addressed

IECEx Scheme in Canada PRESENT Certification must be issued by an accepted Certification Organization Equipment must bear the registered Certification mark of that organization

CHALLENGES For Canadian ExCBs IECEx Scheme in Canada CHALLENGES For Canadian ExCBs The Ordinary Location requirements (Standards) must be assessed Ordinary Location requirements will, in most cases, require the internal components to meet CSA requirements In general, the Descriptive/documentation portion of the ExTR is insufficient (if Ord Loc requirements are not addressed) to issue CSA Certification

IECEx Scheme in Canada FUTURE Canada is committed to the IEC Standards and moving towards a compatible installation code; all new installations must use the “3-Zone” system. Canada is continuing to adopt more and more IEC Standards, both for Ordinary and Hazardous Locations

IECEx Scheme in Canada FUTURE CEC, Part I will continue to incorporate “3 Zone” system; “3 Zone system for Dust in 2009 or 2012
