24、rove the some 10,000 national consensus standards currently approved as American National Standards.ANSI provides that the interests of the public may have appropriate participation and representation in standardization activity, and cooperates with departments and agencies of U.S. Federal, state an

25、d local governments in achieving compatibility between government codes and standards and the voluntary standards of industry and commerce.ANSI represents the interests of the United States in international nontreaty organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and

26、the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The Institute maintains close ties with regional organizations such as the Pacific Area Standards Congress (PASC) and the Pan American Standards Commission (COPANT). As such, ANSI coordinates the activities involved in the U.S. participation in th

27、ese groups.ANSI approval of standards is intended to verify that the principles of openness and due process have been followed in the approval procedure and that a consensus of those directly and materially affected by the standards has been achieved. ANSI coordination is intended to assist the volu

28、ntary system to ensure that national standards needs are identified and met with a set of standards that are without conflict or unnecessary duplication in their requirements.PrefaceThis publication represents a basic standard for safe operation, substantial and durable construction, and acceptable

29、performance of connectors for outdoor gas appliances and manufactured homes. It is the result of years of experience in the manufacture, testing, installation, maintenance, inspection and research on connectors for outdoor gas appliances and manufactured homes designed for utilization of gas. There

30、are risks of injury to persons inherent in some appliances that, if completely eliminated, would defeat the utility of the appliance. The provisions in this standard are intended to reduce such risks while retaining the normal operation of the appliance.Nothing in this standard is to be considered i

31、n any way as indicating a measure of quality beyond compliance with the provisions it contains. It is designed to allow compliance of connectors for gas appliances and manufactured homes, the construction and performance of which may exceed the various provisions specified herein. In its preparation

32、, full recognition has been given to possibilities of improvement through ingenuity of design. As progress takes place, revisions may become necessary. When they are believed desirable, recommendations should be forwarded to the Chairman of Accredited Standards Committee Z21/83, 8501 East Pleasant V

34、d homes depends to a great extent upon its proper installation. It should be installed, as applicable, in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54; the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1; the (U.S.) Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 2

35、4 CFR, Part 3280, or when such standard is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home Installations, Sites and Communities, ANSI/NFPA 501A, or the Standard for Mobile Homes, CAN/CSA-Z240 MH Series; or the manufacturers installation instructions and local municipal codes.Users of this America

36、n National Standard/CSA Standard are advised that the devices, products and activities within its scope may be subject to regulation at the Federal, Territorial, Provincial, state or local level. Users are strongly urged to investigate this possibility through appropriate channels. In the event of a

37、 conflict with this standard, the Federal, Territorial, Provincial, state or local regulation should be followed.THIS STANDARD IS INTENDED TO BE USED BY THE MANUFACTURING SECTOR AND BY THOSE APPLYING THE EQUIPMENT AND BY THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS PROPER INSTALLATION. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THES

38、E USERS TO DETERMINE THAT IN EACH CASE THIS STANDARD IS SUITABLE FOR AND APPLICABLE TO THE SPECIFIC USE THEY INTEND.CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute, Inc., require that action be taken

39、 to reaffirm, revise or withdraw this standard no later than five (5) years from the date of approval.

40、New York, N.Y. 10036, (212) 642-4900.EFFECTIVE DATE: An organization using this standard for product evaluation as a part of its certification program will normally establish the date by which all products certified by that organization should comply with this standard. In Canada the Interprovincial

41、 Gas Advisory Council normally stipulates an effective date for the standard, delayed sufficiently to permit suppliers (manufacturers) to make adjustments.iiHistory Of The Development Of The Standard For Connectors For Outdoor Gas Appliances And Manufactured Homes(This History is informative and is

42、not part of the standard.)With the onset of the Free Trade Agreement between the United States and Canada on January 2, 1988, significant attention was given to the harmonization of the United States and Canadian safety standards addressing gas-fired equipment for residential, commercial and industr

43、ial applications. It was believed that the elimination of the differences between the standards would remove potential trade barriers and provide an atmosphere in which North American manufacturers could market more freely in the United States and Canada. The harmonization of these standards was als

44、o seen as a step toward harmonization with international standards.A draft harmonized standard for connectors for outdoor appliances and manufactured homes was prepared by the subcommittee memebers and CSA staff. On September 15, 1998, the Z21/CSA Joint Subcommittee on Connectors for Gas Appliances

45、reviewed, by letter ballot, the first draft harmonized connectors for outdoor appliances and manufactured homes standard based on current coverage from the American National Standard/CGA Standard for Connectors for Gas Appliances, Z21.24/CGA 6.10-1997, and the U.S. Requirement for Gas Connectors for

46、 Connection of Fixed Appliances for Outdoor Installation, Park Trailers and Manufactured (Mobile) Homes to the Gas Supply, A.G.A. 3-87 and CSA Standard, CSA 6.27.The September letter ballot was approved by the joint subcommittee to distribute the draft standard for review and comment in December 199

47、8. At its July 14, 1999 meeting, following reconsideration and modifications in light of comments received on the proposed draft standard, the joint subcommittee recommended the proposed draft to the Accredited Standards Committee Z21/83 and the CSA Technical Committee for approval.The proposed draf

48、t of the harmonized standard for connectors for outdoor appliances and manufactured homes, as modified by the joint subcommittee, was approved by the Z21/83 Committee on April 13, 2000, and by the CSA Technical Committee by letter ballot dated March 24, 2000.The first edition of the harmonized Ameri

49、can National Standard/CSA Standard for Connectors for Outdoor Appliances and Manufactured Homes was approved by the Canadian Interprovincial Gas Advisory Council on February 15, 2001 and by the American National Standards Institute, Inc., on November 27, 2001.This, the second edition of the harmonized Standard for Connectors for Outdoor Gas Appliances and Manufactured Homes was approved by the IGAC on January 4, 2006, and by ANSI on May 18, 2007.The previous edition of the Sta
