NFPA 58: Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code, 2017 Edition

Featuring an expanded scope, all-new chapter, and major changes, the 2017 edition of NFPA 58 reflects the changing face of LP-Gas technology and the latest safety protocols. Enforced in most states and referenced by DOT, NFPA 58: Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code provides minimum safety requirements for all liquefied petroleum gas (propane) installations -- from small cylinders installed at residences to large bulk storage facilities that can exceed 100,000 gallons. It includes minimum requirements for safe handling during LP-Gas transfer, including operator qualifications, maximum filling quantity in containers, and pre-transfer inspections to ensure containers are fit for continued service. NFPA 58 also covers a number of safety requirements related to container construction; piping design; separation of containers from homes, stores, schools and other important buildings; and safe handling of liquefied petroleum gas during transfer between containers.
