1.3 The values given in SI (metric) units are the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only

1.4 Unless otherwise indicated, all voltage and current values in this Standard are root-mean-square (rms)

1.5 In CSA Standards, "shall" is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the standard; "should" is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; "may" is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the standard; and "can" is used to express possibility or capability.
