What is CSA C22.1?

Csa c22.1 Canadian electrical code, part I, abbreviated as CE Code, is called "Canadian electrical code" in Chinese. It is suitable for electrical engineering and electric drive equipment with all voltages, aiming at establishing safety standards for the installation and maintenance of electrical equipment, and considering the prevention of fire and electric shock, including the prevention of electric shock, thermal effect, overcurrent, fault current and overvoltage.

What is the relationship between CSA C22.1 and terminal standard?

CSA C22.1 will refer to the standards of other end products, such as CsA c22.2 No.46 electric air-heaters, CsA c22.2 No.64 household cooking and liquid-heating appliances, etc.

CSA C22.1 will also be mentioned in the Scope chapter of the terminal standard. The following is a screenshot of the Scope chapter of the standard CsA c22.2 No.64. From this, we can know that the terminal standard corresponding to CSA series is coordinated with CSA C22.1

How to obtain the test report in accordance with CSA C22.1 for electric kettle products?

On September 1, 2023, Amazon Canada website issued an announcement requesting online electric kettle listing to provide documents conforming to CSA C22.1 In addition to traditional electric kettles, this policy also applies to any commodity that heats water in equipment that may contain lead, such as percolating coffee pots, stove espresso machines and mocha pots that are not labeled as "kettles".

For electric kettle products, the supplier should choose standard CSA C22.2 NO.64 or CSA C22.2NO. 60335-2-15 to obtain the test report. Because these two standards cooperate with CSA C22.1, having a test report can prove that the goods meet CSA C22.1.
