1. Scope

Section A – Transformers for Luminous-Tube Signs

A1.1

This section applies to transformers for luminous-tube signs of portable and stationary types, for potentials up to and includ ing 600 volts low-potential, and l5,000 volts open-circuit high-potential, designed to be employed in accordance with the rules of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.

It includes: (a) outdoor types – Enclosed, non-weatherproof construction intended for use within the enclosures of signs; (b) indoor types:,, (i) enclosed, including pendent-type transformers (and “”standing-type”” transformers); and,, (ii) open or skeleton-type transformers; and (c) reactors, if supplied as part of a transformer. Having sealed-in (ie, compound-sealed) windings.

A1.2

Transformers covered by this Section for use as auxiliary equ ipment for signs used for general advertising and display purposes. /

Section B – Transformers for Oil- or Gas-Burner Ignition Equipment

B1.1

This Section applies to transformers for oil- and gas- burner ignition equipment for potentials up to and including 600 volts low-potential, and 15,000 volts open-circuit high- potential, designed to be employed in accordance with the rules of t he Canadian Electrical Code, Part I. Note: The terms “”low-potential”” and “”high-potential”” are used herein, respectively, for “”primary”” or “”low-voltage””, and “”secondary”” or “”high-voltage””.

B1.2

Transformers covered by this Section are intended for use as auxiliary equipment for oil- and gas-burning apparatus. /
