2006-04-03 Measurement Canada Issues New Edition of Accreditation Standard and of Delegation of Authorities Standard


On April 3, 2006, Measurement Canada has issued:

  • the Accreditation Standard S-A-01:2006, Criteria for Accreditation of Organizations to Perform Inspections Pursuant to the Electricity and Gas Inspection Act and the Weights and Measures Act, and the accompanying guide S-A-01-G:2006; and
  • the Delegation of Authorities Standard C-D-01:2006 - Conditions for the Delegation of Authorities for the Calibration and Certification of Standards, Measuring Apparatus and Test Equipment Pursuant to the Electricity and Gas Inspection Act, and the accompanying guide C-D-01-G:2006.

These revised standards apply as of the date of issue and supersede all other previously issued versions of S-A-01, S-A-01-G, C-D-01 and C-D-01-G.

These new standards do not contain any new quality management system requirements. In some sections of the standards, the wording and terminology have changed, however the overall intent of the requirements is the same as the intent of the requirements in S-A-01:2002 and C-D-01:2002.
The new standards can be found on Measurement Canada’s web site under Authorized Service Providers.
