Preface

This is the fourth edition of CSA C22.2 No. 96.1, Mine power feeder cables, one of a series of Standards issued by CSA Group under the Canadian Electrical Code, Part II. It supersedes the previous editions, published in 2013, 2009, and 2004.

In this edition, the testing procedures have been changed as a result of CSA C22.2 No. 03 being replaced by CSA C22.2 No. 2556. Ampacity values in Annex D have also been changed to align with the international industry requirements.
