Canada Corals warehouse build thread

Thats rubbish, the products fall under the low voltage directive. providing the power supply is certified then they are approved.

And no they do not have to be CSA they can be ETL UL TUV just not CE.

The GHL ballasts only show CE.

LED lighting is also test exempt. its in the amendment. the power supply is not thats why both ecotech and GHL use graded power supplies

Interesting.

I really need to compile this information for him so when he comes back we can get approved.

He seems to be very under educated in the regulations, for one just to say it all has to be CSA is B.S just there.

Issue is the info is tightly hidden on health canadas website, and e-safes it takes hours of digging to find it.

I put in a call to a field evaluator.

Apparently they can provide me with all the information needed to pass inspection and certify any equipment that is not certified.

Stay tuned!

+ 1

LED lights are exempt and from what I understand, CE is enough when the electrical unit has an external power supply.

I do see these markings on the GHL ballasts but I dont think its good enough.
