Very specific guidance on the scope of training necessary for installers if it is to be of an acceptable standard. The ACOP considers and explores the extent to which training should provide and test an adequate understanding of: the properties of fuel gases; combustion; flame characteristics; the control and measurement of fuel gases; pressure and flow; the construction and operation of burners; and the operation of flues and ventilation.
As well as providing a summary of legislation and references, it also contains 16-points of suggestion for training courses and recommends on content therein, including all essential aspects of domestic gas work.
HSE has recently consulted on proposals to review its Approved Codes of Practice (ACOPs). Details of proposals and the outcome of the consultation are available.
