Intent

Intent 1:

To exempt dispensers from the minimum clearance requirement stated at the beginning of Clause 4.6.3.3.(1)(f) if certain conditions are met:

  • these openings are part of a building used exclusively by personnel that is essential to the fuel dispensing operations, and
  • ignition sources from electrical installation are eliminated in the building.

This is to limit the probability that ignition sources will ignite vapour from dispensing operations, which could lead to a fire or explosion, which could lead to harm to persons.
