Preface<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the first edition of CSA C22.2 No. 265, Out of parameter circuit interrupter (OPCI). It is one of a series of Standards issued under Part II of the Canadian Electrical Code and is written in SI (metric) units.<\/p>\n

For general information on the Standards of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part II, see the Preface of the latest edition of CAN\/CSA-C22.2 No.0.<\/p>\n

Scope<\/strong><\/p>\n

1.1
This Standard covers requirements for devices to detect certain out of parameter conditions of supply voltage and\/or load current and mitigate, by circuit interruption, the effects of<\/p>\n

(a) overload within utilization equipment; or
(b) over- or under-voltage, or both, that can pose a risk of fire ignition under certain conditions.<\/p>\n

These devices are to be incorporated in certified (end) products intended for use on alternating current (ac) circuits of 120 V, 60 Hz, up to 20 A in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.<\/p>\n

1.2
Devices covered by this Standard are called out of parameter circuit interrupters (OPCI), and there are three types:<\/p>\n

(a) OPCI-I – an OPCI for overload current within a load;
(b) OPCI-V – an OPCI for over or under voltage; and
(c) OPCI-VI – an OPCI incorporating both OPCI-I and OPCI-V functions.<\/p>\n

1.3
In 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.<\/p>\n

Notes accompanying clauses do not include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material.<\/p>\n

Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or figure and may be written as requirements.<\/p>\n

Annexes are designated normative (mandatory) or informative (nonmandatory) to define their application.<\/p>\n

1.4
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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
