NFPA 58 is the standard for LP-Gas storage and piping systems.

NFPA 58 is the standard for LP-Gas storage and piping systems.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not specified
• D. Both storage and piping

Answer: (A)

NFPA 58, the Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code, sets the requirements for the safe storage and handling of LP-Gas and the piping that carries it from storage to use points. It covers how LP-Gas is stored (types of tanks, locations, clearances, venting) and how the piping system is designed, installed, tested, and maintained, including valves, regulators, and related equipment. Because the standard explicitly includes both storage and piping aspects, the statement is true. Saying it's not specified or that it only covers one part would miss the full scope of the code, and NFPA 58 indeed governs both storage and piping of LP-Gas systems.
