35、sMarch2010 viiPrefaceThis is the third edition of CSA C22.2 No. 158, one of a series of Standards issued by the Canadian Standards Association under Part II of the Canadian Electrical Code. It supersedes the previous editions, published in 1987 and 1984.This edition incorporates the following change
36、s from the previous edition:(a) updates to other referenced standards;(b) a change in reference to CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 0.17 for insulation materials testing;(c) the addition of requirements and markings for spring force terminals;(d) revision to the static heating test;(e) an updated corrosion crackin
37、g test;(f) the addition of short-circuit current ratings; and(g) an updated table for static heating test values.For general information on the Standards of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part II, see the preface of CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 0, General Requirements Canadian Electrical Code, Part II.This Stan
38、dard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the Standard.This Standard was prepared by the Subcommittee on Terminal Assemblies, under the jurisdiction of the Technical Committee on Industrial Products and the Strategic Steering Committee on Requirements f
39、or Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the Technical Committee.Interpretations: The Strategic Steering Committee on Requirements for Electrical Safety has provided the following direction for the interpretation of standards under its jurisdiction: “The literal text shall be used in
40、judging compliance of products with the safety requirements of this Standard. When the literal text cannot be applied to the product, such as for new materials or construction, and when a relevant committee interpretation has not already been published, CSAs procedures for interpretation shall be fo
41、llowed to determine the intended safety principle.”March2010Notes: (1) Use of the singular does not exclude the plural (and vice versa) when the sense allows.(2) Although the intended primary application of this Standard is stated in its Scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibil
42、ity of the users of the Standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose.(3) This publication was developed by consensus, which is defined by CSA Policy governing standardization Code of good practice for standardization as “substantial agreement. Consensus implies much more than a sim
43、ple majority, but not necessarily unanimity”. It is consistent with this definition that a member may be included in the Technical Committee list and yet not be in full agreement with all clauses of this publication.(4) CSA Standards are subject to periodic review, and suggestions for their improvem
44、ent will be referred to the appropriate committee.(5) All enquiries regarding this Standard, including requests for interpretation, should be addressed to Canadian Standards Association, 5060 Spectrum Way, Suite 100, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada L4W 5N6. Requests for interpretation should(a) define
45、the problem, making reference to the specific clause, and, where appropriate, include an illustrative sketch;(b) provide an explanation of circumstances surrounding the actual field condition; and(c) be phrased where possible to permit a specific “yes” or “no” answer.Committee interpretations are pr
46、ocessed in accordance with the CSA Directives and guidelines governing standardization and are published in CSAs periodical Info Update, which is available on the CSA Web site at www.csa.ca. Canadian Standards Association Terminal blocksMarch2010 1C22.2 No. 158-10Terminal blocks1Scope1.1This Standar
47、d covers assemblies of wiring terminals and supporting blocks for copper conductors, copper and aluminum conductors, and aluminum conductors rated at a maximum of 1500 V and 2000 kcmil, intended to provide for the connection of wiring designed to be used in accordance with the Rules of the Canadian
48、Electrical Code, Part I.1.2These terminal blocks are intended to support permanently and to insulate wire terminations and joints from each other and from the surface on which the terminal block is mounted, where the absence of such support or insulation could result in a hazard.1.3Terminal blocks c
49、an be of various designs, such as sectional, modular, or one-piece.1.4Terminal blocks can employ a combination of connectors.1.5In CSA standards, “shall” is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; “should” is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and “may” is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard.Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirement
