Under which conditions does the Technical Standards and Safety Act not apply?

The Technical Standards and Safety Act (TSSA) does not apply to private dwelling units because the Act primarily governs safety standards for public use elevating devices within commercial, industrial, and public transportation sectors. This exclusion is based on the understanding that private residences do not pose the same level of public safety concern as commercial and public facilities, as they are generally under the control of the homeowner and not used by the general public.

In contrast, commercial elevators, public transport elevators, and industrial cranes are subjected to the TSSA due to their operational environments, which present risks to the public and require strict safety oversight to prevent accidents and ensure operational reliability.
