Description
Ensuring electrical safety is a crucial responsibility shared by designers, installers, and users. The Canadian Electrical Code sets rigorous safety standards for the design, installation, maintenance, and use of electrical facilities, aiming to prevent electrical arc flash, fire, and shock hazards. Adhering to these standards is vital to safeguarding both people and property from potential electrical dangers.

In-depth knowledge of the code is essential for correctly specifying and applying equipment and wiring across various domains such as design, construction, maintenance, manufacturing, and the use of electricity. This comprehensive course provides detailed interpretations and practical applications in key areas, including wiring systems, grounding and bonding, protection and control, motors, lines and substations, explosion-proof areas, fire alarms, and emergency systems. Additionally, the course covers other critical standards such as the Building Code, IEEE, NFPA, and CSA, all of which are integral to the Canadian Electrical Code.
