ABSTRACT

In China, special equipment is classified into eight categories; they are boilers, pressure vessels (including gas cylinders), pressure pipelines, elevators, lifting appliances, passenger ropeways, large amusement devices, and non-road vehicles. After 60 years of development and changes, China’s special equipment safety supervision work has made great achievements. From the perspective of special equipment, supervision bodies, inspection agencies, and regulation and standard system, the paper outlines the development course and the current situation of China’s special equipment safety supervision. The paper collects and analyses data of the last 10 years, China’s special equipment annual increase rate is over 10%, but the accident rate and mortality of every ten thousand units of equipment are equal to or better than that of developed countries. It summarizes China’s basic experience and shortages in special equipment safety supervision, and proposes three development countermeasures, namely simplify administrative procedures, delegate powers to lower levels, and strengthen regulating and improve service.
