CAN/CSA-C22.2 No.210.2-M90 (R2001)

1. Scope 1.1 This Standard applies to single or multiple conductor, round, flat, or coiled appliance wiring material products for use as follows: (a) Class I Internal: Group (A) - where not subjected to mechanical abuse. Group (B) - where may be subjected to mechanical abuse. (1) Wet (2) Oil; and (b) Class II External: Group (A) - where not subjected to mechanical abuse. Group (B) - where may be subjected to mechanical abuse. (1) Wet (2) Oil. Notes: (1) As there is a great variety of applications for appliance wiring material products, their use should be evaluated with the design and construction of the end-use application and cannot be judged solely by the requirements of this Standard. (2) Class I and II products are Group A, B, or both. (3) Group markings (A, B, or both) relate to tests performed on the individual conductors. Group marking that includes both A and B means all conductors must pass Group B tests. 1.2 Clauses 1 to 3, 4 (conductors), 5 (insulations and insulating coverings), and 6 (coverings other than extruded insulating coverings) are general in nature and apply, unless other wise noted, to appliance wiring material products covered by Clauses 7 to 9. 1.3 This Standard also applies to appliance wiring material with a jacket or overall insulating covering to connect or interconnect data processing and similar systems in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.
