英国安全评估联合会是英国国内一家会员制组织，代表了制造厂、系统及机械的独立检验员的利益。近日，该组织更新了其2009年发布的垂直运输设备补充试验大纲。在组织代表Vince Sharpe和电梯、自动扶梯行业协会的Nick Mellor的监督下，新版大纲涵盖了电梯轿厢意外移动保护系统和自动电动门（automatic power-operated doors）的新内容，并建议电梯设备所有者保留补充试验的记录，这将有利于保障设备服务期间的全面检查顺利进行。
U.K. ORGANIZATION ISSUES UPDATED LIFT-TESTING GUIDELINES
The Safety Assessment Federation (SAFed), a membership organization in the U.K. representing the interests of independent inspectors of manufacturing plants, systems and machinery, has updated its 2009 guidelines on supplementary testing of vertical-transportation equipment. Overseen by SAFed representative Vince Sharpe and Nick Mellor of the Lift & Escalator Industry Association, the revisions include new sections for unintended car movement protection and automatic power-operated doors, and a recommendation that equipment owners retain records of supplementary tests, which are intended to support thorough examinations of in-service lifts.
