9.—(1) This paragraph applies to the re-rating of a transportable pressure receptacle, that is, the reassessment of its capability to contain compressed gas safely with a view to improving its capacity by means of an increase in the charging pressure (or, in the case of liquefied gas, the filling ratio) from that originally assessed and marked on the receptacle at the time of the manufacture.
(2) Every employer shall ensure that any person employed by him does not re-rate a transportable pressure receptacle at work unless he is competent to do so and does so in accordance with suitable written procedures drawn up by the owner of the receptacle.
(3) A person shall not supply a transportable pressure receptacle which has been re-rated unless, following the re-rating, a person or body approved under paragraph 3(4)(a) has certified it as being safe for use.
(4) In this paragraph “filling ratio” means the ratio of the volume of the liquid gas in the receptacle to the total volume of the receptacle.
