than:
 1.             0.31 'E' (200 kPa) where the maximum braking effectiveness of the 'Brakes' so applied is dependent on 'Stored Fluid Energy'; or
 2.             0.24 'E' (155 kPa) where the maximum braking effectiveness of the 'Brakes' so applied is not dependent on 'Stored Fluid Energy'.
1.                               With the 'Supply Line' energy level at 0.0 'E' the braking effectiveness must be at least that specified for the 'Emergency Brake System' in clause 8.1.
 1.                                     The 'Brake System' must be designed so that no single failure in a 'Brake Device' in the 'Service Brake System', except of a 'Supply Line' or 'Control Line', shall cause the 'Brakes' to apply without a 'Control Signal' provided by the towing vehicle.
 2.                                     Manual devices for the isolation of faulty devices or brake circuits may be included in the 'Brake System' but automatic devices of the type that normally remain passive and whose function cannot readily be checked during normal operation of the trailer are not permitted.  For the purposes of this clause normal operation also includes the activity of coupling and uncoupling the trailer connections.
 3.                                     Where a trailer is fitted with an auxiliary park brake release device, enabling stored energy actuation or release of any part of the 'Brake System' to be cut out, the device must be such that the 'Brake System' is restored to normal no later than on the resumption of the supply of 'Stored Energy' to the trailer from the towing vehicle.
 4.                                     All components and devices in the 'Brake System' must meet or exceed at least one appropriate and recognised international, national or association standard, where such standards exist, or the relevant parts thereof.  'Recognised' can be taken to include SA, SAE, BS, JIS, DIN, performance and design related ISO standards and UN regulations.
 5.                                 Brake line couplings must not be interchangeable and must be polarised.  Couplings must comply with the requirements of AS 4945-2000 (Commercial road vehicle – Interchangeable quick release couplings for use with air-pressure braking systems) where applicable, or the requirements of ISO 1728:2006 (Road vehicles – Pneumatic braking connections between motor vehicles and towed vehicles – Interchangeability) for compatible couplings.
 6.                                 Each air reservoir in a compressed air 'Brake System' must be fitted with a manual condensate drain valve at the lowest point.  An automatic condensate valve may be fitted provided it also drains the lowest point.  The manual drain valve may be incorporated in the automatic valve.
 7.                                 Each 'Brake System' must incorporate devices which compensate for any increased movement of its components arising from wear.  Such devices must themselves contain provision for securing them throughout their working range in any position to which they may be adjusted or to which they may themselves
