7、comply with the previous regulations, The Fireworks (Safety) Regulations 1997, until 3 July 2017. The three parts of BS 7114 are cited in The Fireworks (Safety) Regulations 1997, which also allow the supply of fireworks that conform to a standard that provides at least an equivalent level of safety

However, attention is drawn to the fact that the UK committee vote
10、d against its approval as a standard in CEN. The UK committee submitted a negative vote primarily for the following reasons:a) 6.2.1 and 6.2.2 cover the conformity assessment by a Notified Body and are outside the scope of a harmonized standard.b) The final listed observation specified in paragraph
11、2 of 6.17.2 has no exact corresponding requirement in BS EN 15947-5, 7.2.4. The only relevant requirement is that a ground spinner shall not reach a height of more than 0,2 m above the ground.P DProvided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-EUROPEA
