27、nd UL standard for exible cords and cables. It is the fth edition of NMX-J-436-ANCE, the fourteenth edition of CSA-C22.2 No. 49, and the nineteenth edition of UL 62. This edition of CSA C22.2 No. 49 supersedes the previous edition(s) published in 2010, 2006, 1998, 1992, 1989, 1988, 1981, 1973, 1962,

28、 1960, 1956, 1941, and 1937. This edition of UL 62 supersedes the previous edition published in 2010. This harmonized standard was prepared by the Association of Standardization and Certication (ANCE), CSA Group, and Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the Technical Harmo

29、nization Subcommittee, Flex Cords, THSC 20, of the Council on the Harmonization of Electrotechnical Standards of the Nations of the Americas (CANENA) are gratefully acknowledged. This standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the standard. The prese

30、nt Mexican standard was developed by the CT 20 Conductores from the Comite de Normalizacion de la Asociacion de Normalizacion y Certicacion, A.C., CONANCE, with the collaboration of the wire and cables manufacturers and users. This standard was reviewed by the CSA Integrated Committee on Flexible Co

31、rds/Equipment and Appliance Wires and Cables, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Wiring Products and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Requirements for Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the CSA Technical Committee. This standard has been approved by the

32、 American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as an American National Standard. Application of Standard Where reference is made to a specic number of samples to be tested, the specied number is to be considered a minimum quantity. Note: Although the intended primary application of this standard is s

33、tated 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 purpose. Level of Harmonization This standard uses the IEC format but is not based on, nor is it to be considered equivalent to, an IEC standard.

34、This standard is published as an equivalent standard for ANCE, CSA Group, and UL. An equivalent standard is a standard that is substantially the same in technical content, except as follows: Technical national differences are allowed for codes and governmental regulations as well as those recognized

35、 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 protection that the country considers appropriate. Presentation is word for word except for editorial changes.

37、Canada, Mexico, and the United States. At present there is no IEC standard for cords and cables for use in accordance with these codes. Therefore, this standard does not employ any IEC standard for base requirements. Interpretations The interpretation by the standards development organization of an

38、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 organization. If more than one interpretation of the literal text has been identied, a revision is to be proposed as soon as po

39、ssible to each of the standards development organizations to more accurately reect the intent. ANCE Effective Date The effective date for ANCE will be announced through the Diario Ocial de Ia Federacin (Official Gazette) and is indicated on the cover page. CSA Group Effective Date The effective date

40、 for CSA Group will be announced through CSA Informs or CSA Group Certication Notice. UL Effective Date As of March 14, 2016, all products Listed or Recognized by UL must comply with the requirements in this standard. Between March 14, 2014, and March 14, 2016, new product submittals to UL may be ev

41、aluated under all requirements in this standard or, if requested in writing, evaluated under presently effective requirements only. A UL effective date is one established by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and is not part of the ANSI approved standard. MARCH 14, 2014 NMX-J-436-ANCE-2014 CSA C22.2 NO.
