This British Standard specifies requirements for the installation, servicing and maintenance of new and previously-used gas-fired catering appliances used in catering establishments, burning 2nd or 3rd family gases.
It is not applicable to LPG catering installations where appliances are sited temporarily in the open air, marquees or tents, or to LPG installations in mobile catering vehicles (see UKLPG CoP 24, Parts 3 and 4 [22,23]).
NOTE 1 This standard also applies to the installation of typical domestic cookers or leisure appliances such as barbecues when installed in commercial catering sites or establishments. It is not intended to apply to primarily domestic premises, e.g. those supplying a small number of clients on a “bed and breakfast” basis. However, the general rules for hygiene and personal safety should be applied.
NOTE 2 This standard covers a wide range of appliances, such as cookers, fish and chip frying ranges, fryers, ovens, café boilers and urns, bain-marie units, tandoori ovens, kebab grills and barbecues.
