This part of BS8486 specifies one means of determining compliance with the provisions for examination, testing and recording results for new electric lifts specified in BSEN81‑1:1998, before being put into service. This part of BS8486 does not cover the following types of lift or lift equipment: positive drive lifts by use of drum and ropes; positive drive lifts by use of sprocket and chains; rack and pinion lifts conforming to DD222; hydraulic lifts conforming to BSEN81‑2; NOTE1 Hydraulic lifts are covered in BS8486‑2. Programmable Electronic Systems in Safety Related Applications for Lifts (PESSRAL). NOTE2 Due to the varied nature of such equipment the manufacturers of these systems should provide full details of the means by which it can be tested. Since on site testing might not be practical or possible, this may be verification of design as certified by the party responsible for quality assurance under the Lifts Regulations 1997 [1]. This part of BS8486 also specifies a means of determining compliance with the provisions for examination and testing of electric lifts specified in: BSEN81‑28:2003; BSEN81‑70:2003; BSEN81‑71:2005; BSEN81‑72:2003; BSEN81‑73:2005.
