4.5.3
Field wiring provisions for PCE intended for field connection of
conductors larger than No. 10 AWG need not include wiring
terminals, provided that
(a) the PCE is provided with instructions in accordance with
Clause 5.13;
(b) a fastening device such as a stud, nut, bolt, spring, or flat
washer, or the like, as required for an effective installation, is
provided as part of the terminal assembly or is specified in the
installation instructions;
(c) the installation of the terminal assembly does not involve the
loosening or disassembly of parts other than the cover or other
parts giving access to the terminal location;
(d) the means for securing the terminal connectors is readily
accessible for tightening before and after the installation of the
field conductors; and
(e) after installation of the terminal in the intended manner, the
PCE complies with the requirements of this Standard.
N/A
4.5.4
If the terminal connector provided in or specified for use with a
terminal assembly requires the use of a special tool for
securing the conductor, necessary instructions foe using the
tool shall be included with the PCE in accordance with Clause
5.41

Current-Carrying Parts
P
4.6.1
Current-carrying parts shall have adequate mechanical strength
and current-carrying capacity for the service and shall be
nonferrous or stainless steel, except that for Class 2 circuits the
material is not specified.
P
4.6.2
Bare live parts (including conductors) shall be secured to their
bases or mounting surfaces so that they will be prevented from
turning or shifting so as to reduce the spacings required by
Clause 4.16. Friction between surfaces is not an acceptable
means of preventing the tuming of live parts, but a suitable
lockwasher will be acceptable if properly applied.
Live parts are secured in
place
P
4.6.3
The securement of contact assemblies shall be such as to
ensure the continued alignment of contacts.
Adequately secured
P
4.6.4
Misalignment of male and female connectors, insertion of a
multipin male connector in a female connector other than one
intended to receive it, and other manipulations of parts that are
accessible without the use of a tool shall not result in a
hazardous condition. Note: The intent of Uause 4.6.4 is to
address the concerns of mechanical damage, risk of fire,
electric shocks, or injury to persons.
Such connectors only can
be connected in one way
P
4.7
Internal Wiring
P
4.7.1
The space within enclosures of equipment shall provide ample
room for the distribution of wires and cables required for the
proper wiring of the equipment to prevent overheating and
damage to the insulation.
P
4.7.2
The wire connections and wires between parts of equipment
shall be protected or enclosed as required by CSA Standard
CANICSA-C22.2 No. 0.
P
4.7.3
Wireways shall be smooth and entirely free from projections,
burrs, and sharp edges that may cause abrasion of the
insulation on the conductors.
P
4.7.4
Bare conductors shall be so supported that spacings will be
maintained as required by Clause 4.1 7.
