Cables for use in Fault Managed Power Systems (FMPS)

1.1

This Standard applies to single-conductor and multiple-conductor cables for use in Fault Managed Power Systems (FMPS). These cables are intended to be installed in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.

1.2

This standard does not apply to general requirements for Fault Managed Power Systems (FMPS), which are covered in CSA C22.2 No. 0.24.

1.3

In this Standard, “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.

Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (non-mandatory) to define their application.

The values given in SI units are the units of record for the purposes of this Standard. The values given in parentheses are for information and comparison only. Except for conductor sizes, the equivalent "inch/pound" values are in parentheses.
