Introduction
Gas burning appliances using fuel gases must withstand the type of gas which is specified. Other International
Standards cover the testing and properties of fuel gases.
Due to the differing properties of fuel gas depending on its source and region of origin, certain differences in
regulations exist in different regions at present; some of these differences are presented in Annex A.
This document is designed to be used in combination with ISO 21364-1. Together, they establish the
requirements to the product covered by this document. Where needed, this document adapts certain
requirements from ISO 21364-1 with amendments such as:
— “with the following modification”;
— “with the following addition”;
— “is replaced by the following”;
— “is not applicable”.
In order to identify specific requirements that are particular to this document, and not already covered by
ISO 21364-1, this document contains clauses or subclauses that differ to the structure of ISO 21364-1.
To ensure the global relevance of this document, the differing requirements resulting from practical
experience and installation practices in various regions of the world are taken into account. The variations
in basic infrastructure associated with appliances are also taken into account, some of which are addressed
ISO 21364-1:2025, Annex E and Annex A of this document. This document intends to provide a basic
framework of requirements that recognize these differences.
