The new standard will cover the electrical safety of electric utility meters, addressing a concern raised by multiple stakeholders across Canada.

Williams, vice president, Standards, UL Inc. “The ability to use the existing UL standard as a base document will assist a more efficient and cost-effective process in meeting those needs.”
