      Preface


      This is the eighth edition of CSA C22.2 No. 68, Motor-operated appliances (household and commercial), one of a series of Standards issued by CSA Group under Part II of the Canadian Electrical Code. It supersedes the previous editions, published in 2009, 1992, 1989, 1981, 1976, 1962, and 1942.


      This edition updates the 2009 edition of CSA C22.2 No. 68. The major differences include the removal of the requirements for shaving appliances, hair clippers, animal shearers, appliances used for manicure, appliances for hair dressers and similar appliances, food waste disposers and sewing machines, and the addition of requirements for tool cabinets, material moving and transporting devices, and rechargeable battery-operated appliances.
