NZS/AS 4557(Int):2013 PDF Download

The fundamental safety and compliance criteria for household outdoor gas barbecues sold in the New Zealand market are outlined in the NZS/AS 4557 (Int):2013 standard. This standard is an adaptation of AS 4557-2004 with New Zealand-specific national adjustments.

It's important to remember that this document was released in 2013 as an interim standard, and Standards New Zealand is seeking feedback from people and groups with concerns about it. This standard's interim term has been extended from March 31, 2014, to March 31, 2016. This extension is necessary to account for the time that AS/NZS 5263, a proposed joint Australian/New Zealand standard, will be under development. Eventually, the Australian standard AS 4557 that the present interim standard has embraced will be replaced by this proposed joint standard.
