Scope: This chapter of GB 4706.1-2005 is replaced by the following: This part of GB 4706 specifies the safety of heat pumps, air conditioners and dehumidifiers for household and similar purposes. This part applies to single-phase appliances with a rated voltage not exceeding 250V and other appliances with a rated voltage not exceeding 600V, heat pumps (including domestic hot water heat pumps), air conditioners and dehumidifiers equipped with motor-compressors and room fan coils. Appliances which are not intended for general household use but which are still dangerous to the public, such as those used by non-professionals in shops, light industry and on farms, also fall within the scope of this standard. This section also applies to heat pumps, air conditioners and dehumidifiers using flammable refrigerants. 3.121 gives the definition of flammable refrigerants. The above appliance may consist of components produced by one factory or several factories. If multiple components are provided and the individual components are to be used together, the technical requirements of this standard shall be based on the use of the components assembled together. This section does not consider chemical substances other than A1, A2 or A3 as defined in 3.121. Auxiliary heaters (only refers to heaters designed as part of the appliance assembly, the control is installed in the appliance), or other devices installed independently are within the scope of this standard.
