4 General requirement
Addition:
NOTE 101 The use of flammable refrigerants involves additional hazards that are not associated with
appliances using non-flammable refrigerants.
This standard addresses the hazards due to ignition of flammable refrigerant by potential ignition sources
associated with the appliance.
The hazard due to ignition of flammable refrigerant by an external potential ignition source associated with the
environment in which the appliance is installed is compensated by the low probability of ignition.
