GET A LICENSED GAS PLUMBER TO DO IT DON'T BE A HERO FOR THE SAKE OF A FEW DOLLARS AND YOU WILL BE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE LAW AND INSURANCE COMPANY

I am intending to use it the same way it seems to be used to fuel the house kitchen. I'm expecting to have the bottle on the outside of the shed and the cooktop on the inside.
And this is an oven cooktop, minus the oven. Was always intended for indoor use.

Look what people are telling you is
GET A LICENCED GAS FITTER TO DO THE HOOK UP
The gas fitter will have access to the relevant standards and the hose that conforms with the relevant standard.
If you ask the right question the gas fitter will also advise on the ventilation requirements of your cooktop.

OK. Make sure the hose doesn't pass through the wall.

[abrogard]

Ho, ho, ho. Thanks for that. Pass the hose through the wall is exactly what I was going to do.

So now I need two more fittings and a length of copper pipe it seems.

They don't provide for some kind of tube we can fasten through the wall and pass the hose through it?

That would be a rigid pipe connection. (Unless you are another Djokovic)

Gas information sheet 18: Connecting commercial catering equipment – Energy Safe Victoria

Yep. I was thinking of passing 'the hose' through a pipe as a way of protecting the hose. Assuming that's their concern about 'hoses through a wall'.

Thanks for the information sheet. Just when I thought I was getting a clear grasp on requirements that pushed it even further away...

[riverbuilder]

Just get a qualified plumber and gas fitter to do this work, they are trained professionals, you, obviously, are not.

you don't get it.
The extract posted by jack620 describes the wall penetration as a "pipe" not as a "tube".

I'm not saying you can't poke a flexible hose through a tube -- your post makes it clear that that is what you intend to do.

Just be aware that to do as you propose, the installation will not be "to code", because it will not be "to code" the installation will not be "legal", will not be covered by your insurance, and, when you sell the property, the liability will possibly follow you, even if the sale is after your death.


PAY A GAS FITTER TO MAKE THE CONNECTION

[Fuzzie]

Ian, He gets it, he just doesn't care.

[jack620]

Just be aware that to do as you propose, the installation will not be "to code", because it will not be "to code" the installation will not be "legal"...

If it's not done by a licenced gasfitter it won't be legal anyway, regardless of whether it complies with AS5601 or not.
I think we all get that. The question in my mind is whether the OP has the necessary knowledge to carry out the work safely. Based on some of his questions, I'd say he doesn't.

Normally I'd say "go for it" if a person has the knowledge and skills and does their homework. In this case I think employing a gasfitter is the best solution.

Can a moderator lock this thread? I think the general consensus is we are wasting our time trying to give the only logical advice that should be followed.

[Fuzzie]

To be perfectly honest, I've been wondering if this guy is just a troll. The grammar and spelling don't actually correlate with the type of questions being asked.

[jack620]

Me too. His latest thread about the poly water pipe has convinced me.

[abrogard]

Ian, He gets it, he just doesn't care.

I was just about to ask you if you could give me a list or diagram, you know, of the fittings required to make a connection from inside hob to gas bottle outside?

[jack620]

Why don't you stop wasting everyone's time?
