NZS 5266:2014
Safety of gas appliances
Sets out the essential safety requirements for all gas appliances in New Zealand that are not subject to a recognised certification regime. The standard is not a design code and therefore it does not address matters of performance, appearance, or durability except where they are relevant to safety. The requirements are intended to protect persons, domestic animals and property from fire, explosion, release of noxious gases, and physical injury hazards that may arise from gas appliances. This standard was first issued in 2011 as an interim standard. After minor changes in 2012 it was reissued for a further period of comment. The changes added to the list of characteristics to be assessed in A2.2 and in C2.2.2 affirmed the validity of tests using Australian test gases for natural gas. In 2014 the development committee decided that the interim standard should be confirmed as a full standard with a minor change to A2.1 to clarify requirements relating to gas appliance testing using LPG line gas. A small change has also been made to item 27 in the checklist in D1 by removing reference to NZ limit gases and simply requiring that combustion tests are satisfactory.
