Is there a national or local standard for the design and installation of an EE system?
Design and installation are covered under national CSA standards C447 (commercial) and C445 (residential). As of March 2002, both applications are covered under the CSA C448 standard. EESC is not aware of any mandatory provincial regulations pertaining to EE systems, although some municipalities or regulatory agencies may have guidelines or rules which have an impact on the design or installation of EE systems.
