This Standard describes the procedure for determining the average tuft length of the pile of a textile floor covering.

This Standard sets out a method for determining the colourfastness of a textile floor covering to the action of a specified shampoo solution.

This Standard specifies a method for determination of thickness loss of textile floor coverings after prolonged, heavy static loading. It is applicable to all textile floor coverings of uniform thickness and construction. It does not apply to other textile floor coverings unless the areas of different thickness or construction can be separately tested.

This Standard specifies a method for the determination of thickness loss of textile floor coverings after brief, moderate static loading, and is intended to simulate the effect of the pressure exerted by a chair leg for a short period. It is applicable to all textile floor coverings of uniform thickness and construction. It does not apply to other textile floor coverings unless the areas of different thickness or construction can be separately tested.

This Standard describes two procedures for determining the loop length of the pile yarn in textile floor coverings.

Adopts IEC61439-2, Ed. 2.0 (2011) to define specific requirements of power switchgear and controlgear assemblies (PSC-ASSEMBLIES).

Specifies the construction, dimensions and test requirements for single- and multicore cables insulated with polymeric materials intended for use at working voltages up to and including 0.6/1 (1.2) kV. It does not apply to polymeric insulated cables for special installations and service conditions or for which there are separate Australian/New Zealand Standards.

Specifies the requirements for the installation of domestic type water heaters using potable water. It includes aspects of the installation from, and including, the valves on the cold water inlet to any cistern or water heater and the downstream fixtures and fittings.

Outlines measures and practices to assist those industries which may have risks associated with the presence of combustible dusts as part of their processes; it also assists such industries in minimizing the risk of injury, death or loss of property to fire and/or explosion through the application of good design and management principles and practices in the construction, operation and maintenance of manufacturing and processing plants and associated transportation and storage systems.

This Standard sets out requirements for installing textile floor coverings (carpets). It gives details of the work necessary in preparing subfloor surfaces, together with the procedures that are to be adopted where textile floor coverings are laid over various types of subfloors and underlays, and where subfloor heating units are installed.
