    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Specifies requirements and means of conformance for the design, installation and commissioning of LP Gas installations in caravans and boats for non-propulsive purposes.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard specifies requirements and means of conformance for the design, installation, repair, alteration, modification, replacement and commissioning of LP Gas installations in caravans and boats for non-propulsive purposes.
    The requirements cover —
    (a) caravans;
    (b) mobile homes, mobile holiday homes, campervans and motor homes;
    (c) transportable structures with fixed gas installations, other than transportable homes and classroom units;
    (d) trucks and trailers incorporating fixed gas installations;
    (e) boats;
    (f) houseboats;
    (g) floating restaurants, whether fixed or mobile; and
    (h) catering vehicles, whether self-propelled or towed.
    NOTE 1 A mobile home includes what is often referred to as a “tiny house”, which is a relocatable home as distinct from a permanent structure that is transported from one fixed location to the next (see exclusions below).
    NOTE 2 Where commercial catering equipment is to be installed, refer to AS/NZS 5601.1 for specific appliance installation requirements downstream of the appliance installation valve.
