This standard outlines a code of safety for chemical laboratories.

1                   Scope

1.1               This standard outlines a code of safety for chemical laboratories.

1.2              The standard outlines:

(a)               general rules of conduct concerning safety;

(b)               details for fire emergency and rescue procedures;

(c)               general laboratory techniques.

1.3              This standard does not cover hazards relating to radioactive substances.

This document specifies a method for the magnetic particle testing of ferro-magnetic steel and iron castings. It also gives acceptance criteria through severity levels defined by the nature, the area and the dimensions of the discontinuities present. This document is applicable to all ferro-magnetic castings, independent of the moulding method. A steel and iron casting is considered to be ferro-magnetic if the magnetic induction is greater than 1 T

(Tesla) for a magnetic field strength of 2,4 kA/m. This document only applies to those areas of the castings specified for testing, as well as the percentage

of castings to be tested

This document specifies a method for the liquid penetrant testing of steel and iron castings.

This standard specifies requirements for the operation of laboratories and is applicable to all laboratories regardless of the number of personnel or the extent of the scope of testing activities.

This standard is for use by laboratories in developing their quality, administrative and technical systems that govern their operations. Any party may use this standard when confirming or recognising the competence of laboratories.

This standard specifies requirements for the operation of testing and/or calibration laboratories. It is applicable to all laboratories regardless of the number of personnel or the extent of the scope of testing activities.

This standard applies to electric cooking and heating appliances and to electric ,motor-operated or magnetically-driven appliances for household and similar purposes, including office machines.

This standard specifies attachment fused and unfused plugs (caps), shuttered receptacles (sockets) for flush surface mounting. These plugs and sockets are suitable for alternating current circuits only of voltages not exceeding 250 volts and currents not exceeding 15 amperes.  The plugs and receptacles covered by this standard are intended for use in making readily detachable electrical connections in non-hazardous locations between supply circuits and portable lamps, appliances and similar equipment.

This standard specifies requirements for two grades of unleaded gasoline in Guyana for use in motor vehicles with spark-ignition internal combustion engines. It also specifies a method for determining adulteration of premium gasoline with regular gasoline.
