JOLLY ROGER AMUSEMENT RIDES
HEALTH AND SAFETY - CODE OF SAFE PRACTICE AT FAIRS - INDUSTRY STANDARDS
(UNITED KINGDOM)
1.1 Our equipment has been manufactured to the highest standard of construction and safety in order to
conform to the H.S.E. Fairground and Amusement Parks, A Code of Safe Practice and the U.K. Health and
Safety at Work Act 1974.
1.2 This machine must be earthed. (CONNECTED TO GROUND)
1.3 If a 13 Amp BS1363 plug is fitted then a 5 amp fuse should be fitted. (UK only)
1.4 If the ride is to be situated outdoors, the socket outlet supplying the power should be connected by
a permanent weatherproof plug protected by a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) or an Earth Leakage
Circuit Breaker (ELCB) having a trip rating not exceeding 30 milliamps in 30 millisecs.
1.5 In addition to our manufacturer’s test and the daily checks every ride shall be subject to a Thorough
Examination by an appointed person once every period of 14 months. (UK Health and Safety at Work Act
- Code of Safe Practice at Fairs). The regulation applies in the UK only, however it is sound operating
practice wherever a ride is operated.
1.6 The appointed person need not be independent, but should be at least 21 years old, registered
under the Amusement Device Inspection Procedures Scheme (ADIPS) and be competent by such
qualifications, knowledge, experience and supporting services to be able to make an assessment of the
safety of the ride, including any associated equipment/parts e.g. electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic.
1.7 The appointed person should have the technical competence to recognise the significance of the
effects of stresses, loadings and fatigue and also be competent to determine the extent of permissible
wear.
1.8 The Thorough Examination is to be carried out by a registered body in accordance with the regulations
laid down in the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 (Fairgrounds and Amusements Parks-Guidance on
Safe Practice, HSG 175). A Report of Inspection is to be completed after the Thorough Examination.
(Applicable in UK only).
1.9 On completion of the Thorough Examination, a Declaration of Operational Compliance (DOC)
certificate is to be issued which must be retained for a period of ten years and be available for inspection
by the Health and Safety Inspectorate and/or the appropriate officer of the Environmental Health Department
of a Local authority. (Applicable in UK only).
ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE
CARRYING OUT ANY SERVICE OR REPAIR.
1.10 If considered necessary, further protection to the power supply may be afforded by conduit, trunking,
or rubber protector strip with tapered edges and non-slip ribbed bases. Care is needed to avoid a tripping
hazard.
1.11 The Kiddie Rides should be so sited that the length of cable between the ride and socket outlet is a
minimum. For floor mounted socket outlets, the ride may be positioned so that there is virtually no exposed
cable.
1.12 Galvanised steel braided armoured cable and flexible copper braided cable cannot be satisfactorily
terminated in a 13 amp standard (BS 1363) plug. Such cables can be terminated in industrial type plugs
BS 196 or BS 4343 or equivalent, but these require the special suitable sockets. (Applicable in UK only).
