Purchasing Equipment at 深夜福利站
All electrical equipment used on campus must be certified for use in Ontario to minimize the risk of a fire and/or personal harm while operating the equipment.
When purchasing equipment, ensure the equipment supplier is aware of the required approvals that are acceptable by the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA).
There is a higher risk of equipment purchased from overseas countries will not have the correct certification.
For example, the CE mark is a European certification not recognized in Canada.
Contact Procurement Services if you receive equipment without the acceptable approvals. Do not use the equipment until it receives an ESA or equivalent approval.
