Guest Martin Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 I was always taught that when testing new and regular tested fittings a 1hr duration was an acceptable period but when testing fittings that have not been tested a full 3hr duration had to be undertaken. OIs this still the case and where can I get confirmation of this in BS5266 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyB Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 That went out with the ark! Currently BS5266 only requires monthly function testing and annual full rated duration testing, which for 99.9% of fittings sold and installed after the last 20 years are 3 hour rated. This has been the case since 2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
