The discovery of 15 new cataclysmic variables in the Edinburgh–Cape Blue Object Survey is announced. Photometric and spectroscopic observations are presented including high‐speed photometry and time‐resolved spectroscopy. On the basis of these data the systems are classified as dwarf novae and nova‐like variables. In addition, two of them are of uncertain subtypes because of their peculiar behaviour.
