This International Standard defines a practical degree of fire prevention and protection intended to
provide enough time for occupants to escape a fire on board small craft.
It applies to all small craft of up to 24 m length of hull (LH) except for personal watercraft.
This International Standard excludes:
— the design and installation of those permanently installed galley stoves and heating appliances
(including components used to distribute the heat) using fuels that are liquid at atmospheric
pressure on small craft, which are covered by ISO 14895;
— carbon monoxide detecting systems, which are covered by ISO 12133[3].
