The document applies to stand-alone rechargeable electric lighting appliances or kits that can be installed by a typical user without employing a technician. This technical specification presents a quality assurance framework that includes product specifications a framework for interpreting test results test methods and standardized specifications sheets templates for communicating test results.

The scope of this NWIP is to prepare normative documents on safety dealing with: 1) main risks related to couples of use cases and associated technologies; 2) technical contents and results to be included in the safety report and auditing framework; 3) list of main features to be validated by testing; 4) scale at which the storage system must be tested; and 5) recommendations to prevent or mitigate accidental effect.

The standard provides electrical and mechanical requirements for liquid-immersed distribution and power transformers, and autotransformers and regulating transformers; single- and polyphase, with voltages of 601 V or higher in the highest voltage winding, are set forth. It is basis for the establishment of performance, and limited electrical and mechanical interchangeability requirements of equipment are described, and for assistance in the proper selection of such equipment.

The document provides a 3-level system of VRLA String Safety and Performance Criteria based on Telcordia generic requirements documents. The VRLA string criteria levels are defined as follows: ? Level 1, Safety and Minimal Operability – minimum acceptable level of compliance needed to preclude hazards and degradation of the network facility and hazards to personnel, and needed to ensure battery operability at the installation time in controlled environments.

The National Fire Code of Canada 2015 (NFC), published by NRC and developed by the Canadian Commission on Building and Fire Codes, sets out the technical provisions regulating activities related to the construction, use or demolition of buildings and facilities, the condition of specific elements of buildings and facilities, and the design or construction of specific elements of facilities related to certain hazards as well as the protection measures for the current or intended use of buildings.

The IFC contains regulations to safeguard life and property from fires and explosion hazards. Topics include general precautions, emergency planning and preparedness, fire department access and water supplies, automatic sprinkler systems, fire alarm systems, special hazards, and the storage and use of hazardous materials.
