Janet Buyer, Matthew Brookman, and Other CPSC Staff Holding a Public Meeting on CPSC’s Evaluation of the Effectiveness of CO Safety Shutoff Devices on Portable Generators
Janet Buyer, Matthew Brookman, and other staff are holding a public meeting to present an overview of how CPSC staff is evaluating the effectiveness of CO safety shutoff devices on portable generators. Two voluntary standards for portable generators (ANSI/PGMA G300-2018 and ANSI/UL 2201-2018 ) have recently been revised to contain requirements for a generator-mounted shutoff system that will shut the generator off when carbon monoxide (CO) accumulates to certain concentrations around the generator. The meeting is being held at CPSC, 5 Research Place, Rockville, MD in room 103 from 1:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. For additional information, contact Janet Buyer, jbuyer@cpsc.gov (301) 987-2293. Transmitted to the Office of the Secretary 9/19/18. Posted in the Public Calendar 9/19/18. (S)
