Must be in accordance with the relevant standards. A hose

BS 669. For LP Gas it should be capable of 50 mbar pressure,
70 °C temperature rise and carry a red stripe, band or label.
If in doubt contact your supplier. Screw connect the threaded
end of the hose into the gas inlet.
After completing the gas connection, check the cooker is gas
sound with a pressure test.
