The Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), Part 1, 26th Edition, serves as a guideline for electrical installations throughout Canada. Within this Code, Rule 70-000 specifies regulations concerning the electrical installation of factory-built structures. This encompasses a range of structures, including relocatable installations like mobile homes and mobile commercial units, as well as non-relocatable structures such as factory-built residential and commercial housing.
Section 70 itself is divided into two main categories: relocatable structures and non-relocatable structures. The regulations aim to ensure safe electrical practices in these types of buildings, reflecting the unique requirements that differ from traditional construction methods. However, it is important to note that these Rules do not apply to recreational vehicles, which are governed under a separate standard known as the CSA Z240 RV Series. This distinction helps clarify the types of structures that fall under the jurisdiction of the CEC and those that do not, ensuring proper adherence to safety and regulatory expectations in electrical installations across Canada.
