Market Manuals
The Market Manuals consolidate the market procedures and associated forms, standards, and policies
that define certain elements relating to the operation of the IESO-administered markets. Market
procedures provide more detailed descriptions of the requirements for various activities than is
specified in the “Market Rules”. Where there is a discrepancy between the requirements in a
document within a Market Manual and the Market Rules, the Market Rules shall prevail. Standards
and policies appended to, or referenced in, these procedures provide a supporting framework.
