It is the second edition o
36、f CSA C22.2 No. 198.3 and the fourth edition of UL 1441. This edition of CSA C22.2 No. 198.3 supersedes the previous edition published in 1995. This edition of UL 1441 supersedes the previous edition published in 1995. This common standard was prepared by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and
37、 Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the Technical Harmonization Committee 15C (Electrical Tubing and Sleeving Products) of the Council on the Harmonization of Electrotechnical Standards of the Nations of the Americas (CANENA) are gratefully acknowledged. This standard wa
38、s reviewed by the CSA Subcommittee on Insulation Systems, 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 will be subm
39、itted to the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) for approval as a National Standard of Canada. This standard has been approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as an American National Standard. Where reference is made to a specific number of samples to be tested, the specified numb
40、er 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 purpose. Level of harmonization Th
41、is standard uses the IEC format but is not based on, nor is it to be considered equivalent to, an IEC standard. This standard is published as an equivalent standard for CSA and UL. An equivalent standard is a standard that is substantially the same in technical content, except as follows: Technical
42、national differences are allowed for codes and governmental regulations as well as those recognized as being in accordance with NAFTA Article 905, for example, because of fundamental climatic, geographical, technological, or infrastructural factors, scientific justification, or the level of protecti
43、on that the country considers appropriate. Presentation is word for word except for editorial changes. Reasons for differences from IEC The Technical Harmonization Subcommittee identified the following standard as being within the scope of this standard: IEC 60684, Flexible Insulating Sleeving. IEC
44、60684 and CSA C22.2 No. 198.3/UL 1441 are similar but not identical. Both standards cover multiple, but not identical, products and similar methods. The THC agreed to address the issues involved in the harmonization of these standards during the next revision of CSA C22.2 No. 198.3/UL 1441. Interpre
45、tations 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 organization. If more than one interpretation of the
46、 literal text has been identified, a revision is to be proposed as soon as possible to each of the standards development organizations to more accurately reflect the intent. CSA effective date The effective date for CSA International will be announced through CSA Informs or a CSA certification notic
47、e. September 16, 2005 CSA C22.2 No. 198.3-05 UL 1441 5 UL effective date As of September 16, 2005 all products Listed or Recognized by UL must comply with the requirements in this standard except for Clause 6 which is effective September 16, 2006. New product submittals to UL may be evaluated under
48、all requirements in this standard or, if requested in writing, evaluated under presently effective requirements only. The presently effective requirements are contained in the Third edition of UL 1441. A UL effective date is one established by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and is not part of the AN
49、SI approved standard. 6 CSA C22.2 No. 198.3-05 UL 1441 September 16, 2005 Foreword (CSA) The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) develops standards under the name Canadian Standards Association, and provides certification and testing under the name CSA International.
