This part of BS 8486 specifies one means of determining compliance with the provisions for examination, testing and recording results for new electric and hydraulic lifts specified in BS EN 81‑20:2014, before being put into service.
This part of BS 8486 does not cover the following types of lift or lift equipment:
-
positive drive lifts by use of drum and ropes;
-
positive drive lifts by use of sprocket and chains;
-
rack and pinion lifts conforming to DD 222;
-
variations from BS EN 81-20 which might have been approved under design examination schemes by Notified Bodies.
Whilst PESSRAL is included within the scope of this part of BS 8486, it is limited to the recording of the use of the equipment and not its testing methodology. The method of testing and proving compliance of such equipment is expected to be provided by the manufacturer.
