23、ng (MPT) and ttings. It is the fourth edition of CSA C22.2 No. 227.3, and the second edition of UL 1696. This edition of CSA C22.2 No. 227.3 supersedes the previous edition of CSA C22.2 No. 227.3 published on March 18, 2005. This edition of UL 1696 supersedes the rst edition of UL 1696 published on
24、March 18, 2005. Previously, requirements for MPT were found in the common CSA and UL Standard for Nonmetallic Mechanical Protection Tubing (NMPT) and UL 1696A, Outline of Investigation for Mechanical Protection Tubing. This harmonized standard was prepared by CSA Group and Underwriters Laboratories
25、Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the conduit manufacturing industry and the Technical Harmonization Committee 23A, NMPT Working Group, of the Council on the Harmonization of Electrotechnical Standards for the Nations of the Americas (CANENA), are gratefully acknowledged. This standard is consid
26、ered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the standard. This standard was reviewed by the CSA Integrated Committee on Nonmetallic Conduit, Tubing, and Fittings, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Wiring Products and the CSA Strategic Steering Co
27、mmittee on Requirements for Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the CSA Technical Committee. This standard has been approved by the American National Standards Institute as an American National Standard. Application of Standard Where reference is made to a specic number of samples t
28、o be tested, the specied number is to be considered a minimum quantity. Note: Although the intended primary application of this standard is stated in its scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the users of the standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpo
29、se. Level of Harmonization This standard uses an IEC format, but is not based on, nor is it to be considered an IEC standard. This standard is published as an equivalent standard for CSA Group and UL. An equivalent standard is a standard that is substantially the same in technical content, except as
30、 follows: Technical deviations are allowed for codes and governmental regulations and those recognized as being in accordance with NAFTA Article 905, for example, because of fundamental, climatic, geographical, technological or infrastructural factors, scientic justication, or the level of protectio
31、n that the country considers appropriate. Presentation is to be word for word except for editorial changes. Reasons for Differences from IEC The Technical Harmonization Committee determined the safe use of nonmetallic mechanical protection tubing and ttings is dependent on the design and performance
32、 of the raceway and cable systems with which they are intended to be installed. Signicant investigation is required to assess safety and system compatibility issues that may lead to harmonization of traditional North American nonmetallic tubing and ttings with those presently addressed in the known
33、IEC standards. The THC agreed such future investigation might be facilitated by completion of harmonization of the North American standards for mechanical protection tubing and ttings.

34、DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL Interpretations The interpretation by the standards development organization of an identical or equivalent standard is based on the literal text to determine compliance with the standard in accordance with the procedural rules of the standards development orga
35、nization. If more than one interpretation of the literal text has been identied, a revision is to be proposed as soon as possible to each of the standards development organizations to more accurately reect the intent. CSA Group Effective Date The effective date for CSA Group will be announced throug
36、h CSA Informs or a CSA Group Certication Notice. UL Effective Date As of April 10, 2015, all products Listed or Recognized by UL must comply with the requirements in this standard. Between January 9. 2015 and April 10, 2015, new product submittals to UL may be evaluated under all requirements in thi
37、s standard or, if requested in writing, evaluated under presently effective requirements only. The presently effective requirements are contained in the rst edition of UL 1696. A UL effective date is established by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and is not part of the ANSI approved standard. JANUARY

39、nmetallic, composite or metallic ttings, and clamps used for the support, routing and mechanical protection of conductors, wires, and cables. The MPT, ttings, and clamps are intended to be used to interconnect separate component assemblies or consoles of electrical devices, such as robotics, medical
40、 or X-ray equipment. The mechanical protection afforded the internal wiring contained within the tubing is considered equivalent to the protection provided by a type SJT exible cord. Mechanical protection tubing (MPT) may be submitted without ttings, clamps, etc. 1.2 The MPT, ttings, and clamps cove
41、red by this Standard are not intended for use as a wiring method in accordance with NFPA 70, National Electrical Code (NEC) and CSA C22.1-12, Canadian Electrical Code (CE Code), Part I. 1.3 This Standard does not include standard trade sizes. The MPT, ttings, and clamps from different manufacturers
42、are not interchangeable unless the combination of MPT, ttings, and clamps are determined to be in accordance with this Standard. 2 Normative References 2.1 Where reference is made to other publications, such reference shall be considered to refer to the latest edition and all amendments published to
