Your attention is drawn to:-BS 7671:2018 -
Guidance note 8 - 8.13 : Other locations of
increased risk
It is recognised that there may be locations of
increased risk of electric shock other than those
specifically addressed in Part 7 of BS 7671.
Examples of such locations could include laundries
where there are washing and drying machines
in close proximity and water is present, and
commercial kitchens with stainless steel units, where
once again, water is present.
Where because of the perception of additional risks
being likely, the installation designer decides that an
installation or location warrants further protective
measures, the options available include:
•
Automatic Disconnection of Supply (ADS) by
means of a residual current device having
a residual operating current not exceeding
30mA;
•
Supplementary protective equipotential
bonding; and
•
Reduction of maximum fault clearance time.
The provision of RCDs and supplementary bonding
must be specified by the host organisation’s
appointed installation designer or electrical
contractor and installed by a suitably qualified
and competent electrician so as to comply with
Regulations 419.2 and 544.2.
SHELF/SLIDE FITTING
When positioning slides on standard cabinets and
counters, present slide to racking by holding it in
the opposite hand to the side of the cabinet to that
which they are to be applied. Present slide at a 45°
angle (See Figure 1). When in place, let slide drop
into position to create a horizontal ledge on which
the shelves will sit.
LOADING / SHELF DISTRIBUTION
Before loading, allow the appliance to reach its
normal operating temperature.
When loading the appliance, please ensure that its
load is equally distributed throughout and ensure air
can circulate around and through stored products.
Care should be taken when loading the appliance.
Do not obstruct the air ducts. Take care of any parts
with possible sharp edges.
LOCKING FACILITY
On models with a locking facility, it is recommended
that the key be removed from its lock during normal
working use. This will prevent bending or breaking
of the key which could result in the lock having to be
replaced.
Removing the key will also prevent accidental
locking when the door is open. This will prevent the
door from closing properly and cause the interior
temperature to fall. If not checked in time, a loss of
food may result.
