Amendments to Measurement Canada Specification LMB-EG-07 and Policies Related to Interpretations of LMB-EG-07
2008-02-20
Over the past number of years, Measurement Canada (MC) has implemented various amendments and interpretations related to the application of type approval specifications for electricity meters in MC Specification LMB-EG-07 that have not been previously published by the Agency. The purpose of this notice is to communicate the publication of these amendments and interpretations for the information of MC staff and electricity stakeholders.
The requirements included in MC Specification S-E-06 amend certain sections of LMB-EG-07. These amendments have been previously implemented by the Agency during the evaluation of electricity meters for the purpose of type approval. As these amendments occurred prior to the implementation of the Agency's revised publication process in the 1990's, the changes to some of the requirements of LMB-EG-07 had not yet been published.
The policies included in MC Bulletin E-30 communicate interpretations related to LMB-EG-07 which have been made to the application of MC Specification LMB-EG-07 since the beginning of it's implementation. In addition, it consolidates references to amendments to certain sections of LMB-EG-07 that have previously been established through publication of various MC Provisional Specifications and Bulletins.
As the amendments and interpretations identified within the subject Specification and Bulletin are currently being applied by the MC Approval Services Laboratory, MC will not perform a consultation on these documents with consumer and industry stakeholders.
Any enquiries with respect to this notice should be directed to the following Measurement Canada representative.
