New rules! The free warranty period for elevators will be adjusted from 2 years to 5 years, and electric vehicles can be fined up to 1000 yuan for entering elevators.

On the afternoon of August 31, the "Nanjing Elevator Safety Regulations" were passed by the 31st meeting of the Standing Committee of the 16th Nanjing Municipal People's Congress in the second instance. According to legal procedures, the "Regulations" will be submitted to the Standing Committee of the Provincial People's Congress for approval before promulgation and implementation. As the first elevator safety regulation in China, this legislation has carried out innovative explorations in the legislative mechanism and legislative methods, focusing on how to solve the "aging" of high-rise elevators, how to set the minimum warranty period of elevators, and whether electric bicycles should be prohibited from entering elevators. The problem further improves the intrinsic safety level of Nanjing city.
 
It is understood that compared with the old regulations formulated in 2011, the "Regulations (Revised Draft)" has frequent highlights and has made corresponding adjustments. For example, in view of the problem of "new houses and old ladders", the industry practice provides a two-year warranty period for elevators to leave the factory, while the development and construction cycle of residential areas generally takes 4 to 5 years from the start of construction to the completion of the occupancy of the owners. in addition, during this period, developers use elevators to transport building materials with high intensity, resulting in owners "overinsured upon occupancy". In order to solve this problem, the regulations put forward,The elevator warranty period has been adjusted from 2 years to 5 years, and there is no charge for maintenance. The minimum warranty period is five years from the date when the elevator installation supervision and inspection is qualified, forcing elevator manufacturers to improve product quality.
 
In order to solve the potential safety hazards caused by elevator maintenance and supervision, the "Regulations" will be coordinated through legislation. Wuxi and Suzhou plan to determine the minimum warranty period of five years, which is conducive to the establishment of a unified elevator market and legal environment. The revised draft confirms the system and further improves the connotation of the system in accordance with the provisions of the Product quality Law and the Consumer Rights and interests Protection Law.
 
Fire cases caused by electric vehicles entering elevators have occurred from time to time in recent years. In order to reduce such safety hazards, after the first instance of the Regulations, the Nanjing Legislative Work Special Class carefully sorted out the deliberation opinions of the members of the Standing Committee, and organized the relatively concentrated opinions. Legal experts conduct legislative demonstrations. After listening to a number of expert demonstrations and legislative research seminars, the system was supplemented from the perspective that the right to life takes precedence over the right to property and the right to travel convenience.
 
the reporter found in the "regulations" that in the second paragraph of article 32,The attitude is clear that electric bicycles and their batteries are not allowed to enter the passenger elevator,And promote the formation of a social joint force of joint supervision, stipulating that "other passengers, elevator users, owners and owners' committees" have the right to dissuade and stop, and those who refuse to listen should also report in a timely manner. at the same time, article 60 of the "regulations" correspondingly creates legal liability, "those who refuse to listen to dissuasion,The fire rescue agency shall impose a fine of not less than 200 yuan but not more than 1,000 yuan "to promote the implementation of obligations with rigid responsibilities.
 
In addition, the Regulations also set up a system around the management, renewal and renovation of old elevators, as well as related cost financing, strengthening the local government's leading coordination responsibility in elevator renewal and renovation, and requiring regulatory agencies to include elevators with high failure rate of more than 15 years and trapped people in the annual key inspection scope.
 

It is clearly pointed out that in the future, public gathering places and high-rise building elevators whose main parts meet the scrapping standard and whose service life exceeds 15 years should carry out safety assessment, and carry out transformation and renewal according to the evaluation conclusion. Elevators that cannot meet the conditions for safe use after evaluation and rectification should be scrapped compulsorily.
