"Canadian standards in terms of the electrical and gas systems."
I always wondered what was meant by "Canadian standards" and what the difference was. Are they more stringent or laxer than here in the U.S.? :@
Perhaps a bit more stringent in some regards but it's just in the details, otherwise US and Canadian recreational vehicles are very similar. For example, I recall that at the time we owned our Santa Fe popup the gas line feed to the inside stove had to have a valve in the line feeding the stove that US models did not require. These standards are periodically updated and US manufacturers intending to export their product into Canada will often designate a certain production run for this market, ensuring that all code requirements in this country are met. Canadian standards are also the reason that some gas and electrical adapters readily available in the US aren't sold here in Canada, as evidenced in distributors' catalogues as "Not for sale in Canada". Our electrical codes are similar as well but an example of where we differ is where it's unlikely one would ever come across 20 amp campsite service which is so common in many US campgrounds. Not necessarily better or worse, just a bit different. ;)
