Dear Ron, I am not familiar with 29CFR Part 1910 Subpart S. I will provide the following information if these will help in some respect:
In Canada as per the CEC (Canadian Electrical Code) under the Section 2, 2-024 [ Used of Approved Equipment] is specified: " Electrical equipment used in electrical installations within the jurisdiction of the Inspection department shall be approved and shall be of kind or type and rating approved for the specific purpose for which it is to be employed " Since above is used another term "approved", we must check the Section 0, Object, Scope and Definitions. APPROVED AS APPLIED TO ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT means , unless otherwise defined by the authority enforcing this Code, that such equipment has been submitted for examination and testing to an acceptable certification agency, that formal certification has been given by the agency to the effect that the equipment conforms to the appropriate CSA Standards established under the provisions of the Canadian Electrical Code, and that certification report has been adopted by not less than two-thirds of the Provincial/Territorial Inspection Authorities represented on the Committee on the CE Code , Part I." I hope it helps in some respect. Respectfully yours, Constantin Constantin Bolintineanu, P.Eng. Product Safety Engineer DIGITAL SECURITY CONTROLS LTD. 3301 LANGSTAFF Rd.

Hello to all, This is focused to the knowledgeable folks in Canada and to others that might know the answer(s) to this query. In the USA, there exists the federal approval/listing requirements found in 29CFR Part 1910 Subpart S. Does anyone know if there is a similar set of rules requiring safety Listing/Certification in Canada? If so, please identify them, how we can obtain them, and are they available on the web? If there is an absence of this type of regulation, is safety Listing/Certification actually required in Canada?
