What Consulting Engineers Specify

In Canada, approximately one in three households use electric baseboards, with Quebec, BC, Newfoundland & Labrador, and Manitoba residents using primarily electric heating.
Smart cities are projected to be the future of urban living and development. There is the anticipation that smart cities will improve the quality of life for citizens with a clean, secure, accessible, responsible, and sustainable environment. It’s an ambitious aim and we are seeing the supporting infrastructure that will support these goals unfold.
In 2014, apprenticeship programs in Canada had more than 451,100 registrations. New registrations accounted for 93,500, while reinstatements totalled 8,000.

The majority of electrical safety product standards referenced in Appendix A of the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, (the Code) are developed by the Canadian Standards Association(CSA). Some referenced standards, related to fire alarm, security or other fire safety equipment, are developed by Underwriters Laboratories of Canada (ULC).
Rule 86-100 provides definitions for some special terminology used in this section that is not included in Section 0 – electric vehicle, electrical vehicle connector, electrical vehicle supply equipment (EVSE), and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV).
Considerable energy savings can be achieved with sensor-controlled, bi-level corridor lighting, according to results of a field demonstration led by the Lighting Research Center (LRC) at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
