2024 Canadian Electrical Code: Grounding & Bonding
Overview of the grounding, bonding and equipotential bonding requirements
détails du produit
Course Overview
This online course explains requirements and principles for grounding and bonding for solidly grounded systems operating at voltages not exceeding 1000 V ac or 1500 V dc, based on requirements in CSA C22.1:24, Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.
With an emphasis on safety, this course explores the prescriptive requirements of grounding and bonding which are imperative in minimizing the risk and severity of electric shock, and to better protect workers and prevent damage to property during a fault event.
For nearly 90 years, the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I has been and continues to be a comprehensive model Code that provides guidance to help make electrical installations and equipment safer.
This course highlights practical information through scenarios, activities, and real-world examples to assist in conveying CE Code requirements.
