Equipment covered by this standard This standard is applicable to mains-powered or battery-powered information technology equipment@ including electrical business equipment and associated equipment@ with a RATED VOLTAGE not exceeding 600 V and designed to be installed in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code@ Part I@ CSA C22.1-02; General Requirements ?C Canadian Electrical Code@ Part II@ CSA C22.2 No. 0-M91; the National Electrical Code@ NFPA 70-2005; and the National Electrical Safety Code@ IEEE C2-2002. The standard is also applicable to equipment@ unless otherwise identified by a marking or instructions@ designed to be installed in accordance with Article 645 of the National Electrical Code@ NFPA 70@ and the Standard for the Protection of Information Technology Equipment@ NFPA 75-2003. See Annex NAE for examples of and references to regulatory requirements that apply to this equipment. This standard is also applicable to such information technology equipment: ?C designed for use as telecommunication terminal equipment and TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK infrastructure equipment@ regardless of the source of power; ?C designed and intended to be connected directly to@ or used as infrastructure equipment in@ a CABLE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM@ regardless of the source of power; ?C designed to use the AC MAINS SUPPLY as a communication transmission medium (see Clause 6@ Note 4 and 7.1@ Note 4). This standard is also applicable to components and subassemblies intended for incorporation in information technology equipment. It is not expected that such components and subassemblies comply with every aspect of the standard@ provided that the complete information technology equipment@ incorporating such components and subassemblies@ does comply. NOTE 1 Examples of aspects with which uninstalled components and subassemblies may not comply include the marking of the power rating and access to hazardous parts. NOTE 2 This standard may be applied to the electronic parts of equipment even if that equipment does not wholly fall within its Scope@ such as large-scale air conditioning systems@ fire detection systems and fire extinguishing systems. Different requirements may be necessary for some applications. This standard specifies requirements intended to reduce risks of fire@ electric shock or injury for the OPERATOR and layman who may come into contact with the equipment and@ where specifically stated@ for a SERVICE PERSON. This standard also specifies requirements intended to reduce risks from acoustic outputs at communication receivers and similar devices used for voice telecommunication@ regardless of transmission medium (e.g.@ TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORK@ CABLE DISTRIBUTION NETWORK@ wireless network). See Annex NAD. This standard is intended to reduce such risks with respect to installed equipment@ whether it consists of a system of interconnected units or independent units@ subject to installing@ operating and maintaining the equipment in the manner prescribed by the manufacturer. NOTE 3 The requirements of IEC 60065 may also be used to meet safety requirements for multimedia equipment. See IEC Guide 112@ Guide on the safety of multimedia equipment. This list is not intended to be comprehensive@ and equipment that is not listed is not necessarily excluded from the scope. Equipment complying with the relevant requirements in this standard is considered suitable for use with process control equipment@ automatic test equipment and similar systems requiring information processing facilities. However@ this standard does not include requirements for performance or functional characteristics of equipment.
