This connection must be arranged so that the gauge cannot be shut off from the boiler except by a cock placed near the gauge. This cock must be provided with a tee or lever-type handle. When the cock is open, the tee or lever must be parallel to the pipe in which the cock is located.</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Source:</b> 23 SDR 139, effective March 5, 1997.</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>General Authority:</b>SDCL <A HREF="/statutes/DisplayStatute.aspx?Type=Statute&Statute=34-29A-14.1">34-29A-14.1.</A></p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Law Implemented:</b>SDCL <A HREF="/statutes/DisplayStatute.aspx?Type=Statute&Statute=34-29A-14.1">34-29A-14.1.</A></p> </div> </body> </html>
