Show the text

1 For equipment which has to be handled during normal operation by the flight or cabin crew, a temperature rise of the order of 25°C, for metal parts, should not be exceeded. For other equipment, mounted in parts of the aeroplane normally accessible to passengers or crew, or which may come into contact with objects such as clothing or paper, the surface temperature should not exceed 100°C, in an ambient temperature of 20°C. 2 The heating surfaces of properly installed cooking apparatus are excluded from these requirements. 3 The provision of guards around hot surfaces is an acceptable method of complying with these requirements.
