11.3 Safety System

  11.3.1 The safety system should automatically stop that part of the monitored installation which is in danger in cases of serious malfunction of the machinery or its auxiliaries. Propulsion and lift should only be stopped in cases where there is a risk of complete breakdown or explosion. The Administration may permit provision to be made to override the safety system provided it is sealed so as to prevent inadvertent operation.

  11.3.2 The safety system should be designed so as to be protected against breakdown. For this purpose, any fault in the safety circuit should not result in untimely stoppage of the installation it protects.
