If installation is to be carried out using a flexible connector (to BS669), then the follow-
ing points must be adhered to:
Note: The gas installation pipes and the final connection to the appliance connecting
pipe shall be sufficient size to maintain the heat output of the appliance as specified
under installation.
1. The appliance flexible connector should not be subject to undue forces, either in
normal use whilst being connected or disconnected.
2. The appliance flexible connector should not be subject to excessive heat by direct
exposure to flue products or by contact with hot surfaces.
3. The socket into which the plug of the appliance flexible connector fits should be
permanently attached to a firmly fixed gas installation pipe and positioned such that
the hose hangs freely downwards.
4. The appliance flexible connector should be positioned such that it will not suffer
mechanical damage; eg abrasion from the surrounding kitchen furniture which
may be moved in use, such as a door or drawer, or by being trapped by a stability
device.
5. The plug-in connector should be accessible for disconnection after moving the
appliance.
