Notes: 1) Examples of industrial control panels and assemblies covered by this Standard include motor control panels, process control equipment panels, heating panels, programmable control panels, heating and cooling equipment control panels, etc. 2) The term “control” as used throughout this Standard applies to both starters and controllers. 3) Electrical instruments that can be included as part of control equipment such as meters, are not covered by this Standard. 1.2 The industrial control panels and assemblies covered by this Standard are intended for use in an ambient temperature of 0 to 40 °C. Additional investigation of the equipment will be required when equipment is to be used in an ambient temperature outside of this range. 1.3 This Standard does not apply to equipment or modifications to equipment covered by other CSA Standards, such as: a) power supplies; b) automatic transfer switches; c) elevator equipment; d) enclosed switches; e) switchgear; f) line isolation monitors; g) panelboards and custom panelboards; h) hazardous location equipment; i) hydro-massage equipment; j) power factor correction capacitor banks; k) fire pump controllers; l) assemblies of equipment intended solely for the distribution of power; and m) motor control centre sections. 1.4 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.
