Americas specific NEC and CEC

The standard reference documents for electrical installations in North America are the National Electric Code (NEC) for the USA and the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) for Canada.

It is important to understand that electrical equipment used in ordinary, wet and hazardous (or classified) locations must be ‘listed’ by an accredited approval agency for use in the intended location. The hazardous locations include areas in which flammable, combustible or ignitable substances may occur in hazardous amounts.

CEC和NEC的技术规范非常相似，但有轻微的差异，了解差异很重要，这就是为什么CMP在两种代码中具有技术专家，可以帮助设计合适的产品的代码。适合正确的环境。

NEC和CEC代码都允许分类有危险场所的两种方法，这些位置是类和划分，以及类和区域。NEC＆CEC之间的一个关键差异是自1998年以来，CEC要求任何新的安装都有在课堂和区域概念下应用的区域分类。
