24、THOUT PERMISSION FROM UL PREFACE This is the harmonized CSA Group and UL standard for belowground reinforced thermosetting resin conduit (RTRC) and ttings. It is the rst edition of CSA C22.2 No. 2420, and the rst edition of UL 2420. This harmonized standard has been jointly revised on December 16, 2

25、016. For this purpose, CSA Group and UL are issuing revision pages dated December 16, 2016. This harmonized standard was prepared by the CSA Group and Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL). The efforts and support of the conduit manufacturing industry and the Technical Harmonization Subcommittee for C

26、onduit and Tubing, of the Council of the Harmonization of Electrotechnical Standards for the Nations of the Americas (CANENA), are gratefully acknowledged. This standard is considered suitable for use for conformity assessment within the stated scope of the standard. This standard was reviewed by th

27、e CSA Integrated Committee on Nonmetallic Conduit, Tubing, and Fittings, under the jurisdiction of the CSA Technical Committee on Wiring Products and the CSA Strategic Steering Committee on Requirements for Electrical Safety, and has been formally approved by the CSA Technical Committee. This standa

28、rd has been approved as a National Standard of Canada by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC). This standard has been approved by the American National Standards Institute as an American National Standard. Where reference is made to a specic number of samples to be tested, the specied number is to

29、be considered a minimum quantity. Note: Although the intended primary application of this standard is stated in its scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the users of the standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose. Application of Standard Where refe

30、rence is made to a specic number of samples to be tested, the specied number is to be considered a minimum quantity. Note: Although the intended primary application of this standard is stated in its scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the users of the standard to jud

31、ge its suitability for their particular purpose. Level of Harmonization This standard is published as an equivalent standard for CSA and UL. An equivalent standard is a standard that is substantially the same in technical content, except as follows: Technical deviations are allowed for codes and gov

32、ernmental regulations and those recognized as being in accordance with NAFTA Article 905, for example, because of fundamental, climatic, geographical, technological or infrastructural factors, scientic justication, or the level of protection that the country considers appropriate. Presentation is to

33、 be word for word except for editorial changes.

34、equivalent standard is based on the literal text to determine compliance with the standard in accordance with the procedural rules of the standards development organization. If more than one interpretation of the literal text has been identied, a revision is to be proposed as soon as possible to eac

35、h of the standards development organizations to more accurately reect the intent.

36、Fittings 1 Scope 1.1 This Standard species the requirements for low-halogen belowground (Type BG) reinforced thermosetting resin conduit (RTRC) and ttings, for installation and use in accordance with CSA C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), Part I, and NFPA 70, National Electrical Code (NEC). 1.2

37、The products specied in this Standard are intended for use at -40C (-40F) to 110C (230F). 1.3 Type BG conduit has not been evaluated for directional boring applications. 1.4 This Standard covers ID (dimensions based on inside diameters) and IPS (dimensions based on outside diameters of iron pipe siz

38、es) conduit and ttings. Trade sizes (metric designators) are 1/2 (16) to 6 (155). Note: The values in parenthesis are metric size designations of conduits and ttings and do not necessarily reect metric trade sizes 1.5 This Standard covers conduit with designations EB (encased burial) and DB (direct

39、burial), which refer to specic wall thicknesses. EB conduit, is suitable for encasement in concrete. DB conduit is suitable for encasement in concrete and direct burial. 1.6 Fittings specied in this Standard include, but are not limited to, straight couplings, 5 angle couplings, adapters, and elbows

40、 with plain ends or integral belled ends at one or both ends. 2 Denitions 2.1 The following denitions apply in this standard: 2.2 Integral belled end a belled end installed at the factory, either integrally wound or a permanently attached coupling. 2.3 Low-halogen a material having not more than 0.2

41、% by weight of total halogen content. 2.4 Type BG conduit and associated ttings that have been evaluated for underground use only, for direct burial with or without being encased in concrete. Note: For other denitions, refer to NEC and/or CEC. 3 Reference publications and units of measurement 3.1 Re
