Scope

This Standard applies to nonmetallic enclosures not exceeding 1640 ml in volume, or parts of nonmetallic enclosures intended for wiring devices with a rated voltage not exceeding 750 V.

This Standard may be used as a guide for enclosures having a rated voltage up to 1000 V.

Enclosures complying with this Standard are suitable for use, after installation, at ambient temperatures not normally exceeding 25°C, but occasionally reaching 35°C.

For the purpose of this Standard the enclosures include surface, flush and semi-flush mounting boxes provided for electrical accessories within the scope of Technical Commitee 23, where the cover or cover-plate may or may not be part of the accessory. This standard does not apply to enclosures for assemblies containing overcurrent protective devices, which are within the scope of SC17D nor to enclosures of the busbar trunking type.

This Standard also applies to boxes intended for the mounting or suspension of luminaires.

This Standard is intended to apply to enclosures for electrical accessories within the scope of Technical Committee 23 but is also intended to serve as a reference document for other Technical Committees and Sub-Committees.

An enclosure which is an integral part of an electrical accessory and provides protection for that accessory against external influences (e.g. mechanical impact, ingress of solid objects or water, etc.) is covered by the relevant standard for such an accessory.

This Standard applies to the safety of equipment designed to be installed and used in accordance with the rules of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.
Note: Manufacturers designing products for use in Canada may find a helpful summary of the equipment-related requirements of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, in CSA Publication SPE-2000.

Canadian Deviations are included in this Standard.
