These Notes are included for explanatory purposes only and do not form part of the requirements. The number that introduces each Note corresponds to the applicable requirement in this Part.
The "Canadian Electrical Code, Part I" contains requirements relating to lighting that are similar to those in the NBC. However, the Electrical Code requirements apply only to residential occupancies, whereas many of the requirements in the NBC apply to all Part 9 buildings. Code users must therefore be careful to ensure that all applicable provisions of the NBC are followed, irrespective of the limitations in the Electrical Code.
