    SKU: 2422489 Published by CSA Group Publication Year 2013 216 pages Withdrawn

    Product Details

    • Overview
    • Preface/Scope
    Risk of serious or fatal injuries is a reality when working on or around electrical systems and preventative maintenance has been shown to save time, money and lives. CSA Z463 will be Canada’s first comprehensive guideline on electrical system maintenance. This new guideline is intended to provide direction for organizations seeking to design and implement an effective electrical maintenance plan. This new guideline complements the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, as well as CSA Z462 Workplace Electrical Safety and CSA Z460 Control of Hazardous Energy. They are designed to work together to help to encourage implementation of safe equipment operations and procedures.

    Highlights of Z463 Include
    • Based on well recognized management system standards, such as ISO 9000 and CSA Z1000, and designed to complement the CE Code as well as CSA Group electrical standards
    • Focuses on principles of predictability, expected failure modes, and pre-emptive scheduled maintenance to help avoid extensive downtime and maintain a state of readiness for critical equipment
    • Includes a section on maintenance of special equipment and life-critical systems
    • Includes an informative Annex containing valuable technical information, tables, and reference information from other document

    Preface


    This is the first edition of CSA Z463, Guideline on maintenance of electrical systems. Several codes and standards, rather than a single seed document, have been used as references to develop this Guideline. 


    This Guideline on maintenance of electrical systems provides guidance on the application of safety management systems, the selection of reference standards and maintenance procedures, and the assessment of electrical equipment to verify correct function. 


    CSA acknowledges that the development of this Guideline was made possible, in part, by the financial support of Bruce Power, Cenovus Canada, Chemco Electric, Hydro-Québec, IRISS Inc., Magna Electric, Magna IV Engineering, Orbis Engineering, PACE, Pacific Powertech, PEARL, PSAMS, REV Engineering, Schneider Electric, and Vale.
