Technical Regulators
In Canada, power engineers are regulated by their respective jurisdictions. Each province has a technical safety regulator that is granted power through “enabling acts” and overseen by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). These regulators grant, maintain and in some circumstances revoke power engineering licensees.
Power engineer examinations and licensing in all 10 provinces and three territories are regulated by the Standardization of Power Engineers Examinations Committee (SOPEEC) who receives recommendations by the Interprovincial Power Engineering Curriculum Committee (IPECC).
