1.1 本规范旨在规定蜡烛和蜡烛组件的最低安全要求，以为蜡烛的正常使用提供合理程度的安全，从而提高人身安全并减少火灾、死亡和伤害。 1.2 本规范无意取代其他应实施的重要安全措施，如成人监督、密切监控、火灾探测、报警或灭火系统，以及在远离可燃材料的地方使用蜡烛。 1.3 本规范用于测量和描述材料、产品或组件在受控条件下对热和火焰的响应，但其本身并不包括在实际火灾条件下对材料、产品或组件进行火灾危险或火灾风险评估所需的所有因素。1.4 该标准用于预测或提供涉及特定材料、产品或组件的一组指定火灾条件下的火灾危险的定量测量。该评估不一定预测实际火灾的危险，实际火灾涉及分析中假设的条件以外的条件。 1.5 火灾测试本质上是危险的。在进行这些试验时，应对人员和财产采取充分的安全措施。 1.6 本规范规定了以英寸-磅为单位的值，这些值将被视为标准。括号中给出的值仅供参考。 1.7 本说明书并不旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全性问题(如果有的话)。本标准的使用者有责任在使用前建立适当的安全、健康和环境实践并确定法规要求的适用性。1.8 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认的标准化原则制定的。

1.1 This specification is intended to prescribe minimum safety requirements for candles and candle ensembles to provide a reasonable degree of safety for normal use with candles, thereby improving personal safety and reducing fires, deaths, and injuries. 1.2 This specification is not intended to replace other important safety practices that should be in place, such as adult supervision, close monitoring, fire detection, alarm or suppression systems, and use of candles away from combustible materials. 1.3 This specification is used to measure and describe the response of materials, products, or assemblies to heat and flame under controlled conditions, but does not by itself incorporate all factors required for fire hazard or fire risk assessment of the materials, products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions. 1.4 This standard is used to predict or provide a quantitative measure of the fire hazard from a specified set of fire conditions involving specific materials, products, or assemblies. This assessment does not necessarily predict the hazard of actual fires which involve conditions other than those assumed in the analysis. 1.5 Fire testing is inherently hazardous. Adequate safeguards for personnel and property shall be employed in conducting these tests. 1.6 This specification states values in inch-pound units which are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parenthesis are for information only. 1.7 This specification does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory requirements prior to use. 1.8 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
