    i) Appliances with input ratings less than 60,000 Btu/hr (17 584 W) shall be designed to accommodate a vertically mounted integral cylinder with a maximum size of 20 lb (9.1kg) of fuel.


    ii) Appliances with input ratings greater than or equal to 60,000 Btu/hr (17 584 W) may be designed to accommodate a vertically mounted integral cylinder with a maximum size of 30 lb (13.6 kg) of fuel.


    iii) Appliances with input ratings greater than or equal to 80,000 Btu/hr (23 446 W) may be designed for not more than two vertically mounted integral vapor withdrawal cylinders, each with a maximum size of 20 lb (9.1 kg) of fuel.


    iv) Portable appliances intended for table top use shall have input ratings limited to not more than 15,000 Btu/hr (4 396 W) and shall be designed to accommodate a vertically mounted cylinder with a maximum size of 16.4 oz (465 g) of fuel.


    v) Portable appliances with input ratings not greater than or equal to 25,000 Btu/hr (7 327 W) may be designed for the use of not more than two cylinders, each with a maximum size of 16.4 oz (465 g) of fuel.


    vi) Appliances designed for use with remote LP cylinders shall be limited to one cylinder of maximum 30 lb (13.6 kg) of fuel or two cylinders with maximum of 20 lb (9.1kg) of fuel each.


    1.3

    An appliance conforming to Clause 1.2b)ii), and that is capable of accepting either a 20 lb (9.1 kg) or a 30 lb (13.6 kg) LP-gas cylinder, shall have all applicable tests in Clause 4, Construction, and Clause 5, Performance, conducted with both size cylinders.

    b) liquefied petroleum gases.


    1.5

    The construction of an appliance for use with the above-mentioned gases is described in Clause 4, Construction.

    1.6

    This Standard also applies to appliances designed for connection to self-contained LP-gas supply systems:


    a) operating at regulated outlet pressures not to exceed 11 in wc (2.74 kPa); or


    b) operating at regulated outlet pressures in excess of 11 in wc (2.74 kPa) but not greater than 5 psi (34.5kPa).


    1.7

    Built-in appliances may be for:


    a) connection to a fixed fuel piping system; or


    b) connection to a remote self-contained liquefied petroleum gas supply system (see Clause 3, Definitions), provided the appliance is supplied with remote mounting and retention means for the attachment of a single cylinder with a maximum size in accordance with Clause 1.2b)i) or Clause 1.2b)ii) and instructions for installing the mounting and retention means within the built-in enclosure.


    1.8

    An appliance having integral mounting and retention means shall be designed so a spare 20 lb (9.1 kg) or 30 lb (13.6kg) LP-gas cylinder cannot be stored within any enclosure or under the firebox of the appliance.
