Overview of essential safety requirements and . 17Annex ZA (informative)
Relationship between this European Standard and the Essential Requirements of EU Directive 2007/23/EC on the placing on the market of pyrotechnic articles . 18Bibliography . 19
AQL quality level that is the worst tolerable process average when a continuing series of lots is submitted for acceptance sampling 3.2.2 batch test test performed on a sample of products taken at random from a production batch to check compliance with a given standard
Note 1 to entry: Batch testing needs all products in the production batch comply with the characteristics the standard requires to assure homogeneity of the whole batch. It aims at proving that all products which are placed on the market are in conformity with the type which is described in the EC type-examination certificate and have been successfully submitted to type tests as determined by the standard. 3.2.3 burst height altitude of the bursting point of the effect or the article Note 1 to entry: For single break shells, this is the height at which the bursting charge of the shell functions. For complex shells, it is the highest bursting effect. 3.2.4 calibre external diameter of a firework designed to be fired from a mortar tube (e.g. shell) or the internal diameter of a tube which contains pre-assembled items (e.g. a roman candle) Note 1 to entry: It is important that the internal diameter of the mortar tube is close to the external diameter of the firework, enabling the existence of a peripheral gap which is a compromise between the necessity of a free motion of the firework in the tube and a lowest escape of lift gases passing by the firework during its motion in the tube. 3.2.5 critical nonconforming unit nonconforming unit with one or more critical nonconformities, with or without major or minor nonconformities 3.2.6 critical nonconformity nonconformity that judgement and experience indicate is likely to result in hazardous or unsafe conditions Note 1 to entry: This type of nonconformity is referred to a 'class A nonconformity' in ISO 2859-1. 3.2.7 debris any part of the firework which remains after the firework has ceased to function
Note 1 to entry: Chemical products resulting from the combustion of the pyrotechnic compositions are not considered as "debris". 3.2.8 delay fuse fuse incorporated into the initial fuse of a firework to introduce a delay between firing and functioning or the internal fuse in a firework to enable sequential firing of elements of the firework (e.g. in a shell).
Note 1 to entry: By extension, this term also applies to other types of fire transmission devices like quickmatch or blackmatch or pressed fuse. Note 2 to entry: See also "delay fuse".
3.2.21 gross mass total mass of the firework (not including any ancillary equipment (e.g. frames)) 3.2.22 group set of individual items which will be considered together for the purposes of testing and certification Note 1 to entry: Synonymous with "family". 3.2.23 ignition head initial fuse consisting of pyrotechnic composition only 3.2.24 initial fuse component of a firework which is ignited in order to start the firework functioning 3.2.25 initial fuse time burning time of the initial fuse 3.2.26 lifting charge non-consolidated pyrotechnic composition used to project the firework as a whole or a sub component of the firework into the air (e.g. in mine or shell) 3.2.27 major nonconforming unit nonconforming unit with one or more major nonconformities, with or without minor nonconformities, but with no critical nonconformities 3.2.28 major nonconformity nonconformity, other than a critical nonconformity, which is likely to result in failure, to reduce materially the usability of the firework, or to increase the potential hazard Note 1 to entry: This type of nonconformity is referred to a ‘class B nonconformity’ in ISO 2859-1. 3.2.29 minor nonconforming unit nonconforming unit with one or more minor nonconformities, but with no critical or major nonconformities SIST EN 16261-1:2012

NEC mass of pyrotechnic composition in the firework, excluding the pyrotechnic composition of the initial fuses and any transmitting fuses Note 1 to entry: Net explosive quantity (NEQ), net explosive mass (NEM) or net explosive weight (NEW) are often used to convey the same meaning. 3.2.33 nonconforming unit firework or assembly of fireworks fused together at the manufacturing level with one or more nonconformities 3.2.34 nonconformity non-fulfilment of a requirement
[SOURCE: ISO 2859-1:1999] 3.2.35 overall duration time from the start of the first effect until the end of the last effect and, for an aerial wheel, the flight time from the take off until the landing 3.2.36 packaging wrapping or encasing in which an item is presented for transport, storage and/or sale 3.2.37 principal effect main visual and/or aural effect the firework has been designed to display 3.2.38 projected article article whose movement is produced by a non
