It supersedes the first edition published in 1957. This second e

41、dition includes revisions previously published and a number which have been approved but not published heretofore. Since the adoption of this Standard in 1960 the variety in equipment in the room air conditioner category has emphasized the need to extend the original scope, to make more specific req

42、uirements for the enclosures, supply cords, switches, grounding, etc., and to amend the test requirements so as to reflect changes in practice recognized in other Standards. The changes will produce a more up-to-date Standard and remove some ambiguities which now exist, without requiring any changes

43、 to equipment which is now approved. This Standard was prepared under the jurisdiction of the Committee on CE Code, Part II, which is subsidiary to the Committee on CE Code, Part I, and was formally approved by these Committees. REXDALE, AUGUST, 1970 NoTE: For general information regarding the Stand

44、ards of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part II, see the preface of the latest issue of GSA Standard C22.2 No.0, Definitions and General Requirements. In order to keep abreast of progress in the electrical industry, these Standards are subject to periodic review. Suggestions for improvement addressed

45、to Canadian Standards Association, 178 Rexdal.e Boulevard, Rexdale 603, Ontario, Canada, will be welcomed at all times. They will be recorded and in due course, brought to the attention of the CSA Com- mittee on Canadian Electrical Code, Part II. REFERENCE PUBLICATJ ONS This publication makes refere
