NRCAN 2019 AND ONTARIO GREEN ACT – ON REG.404/12
New higher efficiency levels for certain transformers became effective in the US market as of January 2016 (U.S. DOE 2016).
Similar requirements came into effect in Ontario (Canada) beginning January 2018. Other Canadian provinces are to implement the same changes as Ontario starting May 1, 2019.
It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure the transformers meet the mandated efficiency level in the intended jurisdiction of installation.
