What must be issued before operating oil-burning equipment?

  1. Installation permit

  2. Operation license

  3. Use permit

  4. Compliance certificate

The correct answer is: Use permit

To operate oil-burning equipment, a use permit must be issued as it ensures that the equipment complies with local regulations and safety standards. The use permit signifies that the installation has been inspected and is approved for operation, verifying that it is safe for use in the designated environment. An installation permit is typically required for the setup of the equipment but does not cover its operational status. Similarly, an operation license may imply permissions for broader operational activities but does not specifically address individual equipment use. A compliance certificate often relates to adherence to specific regulatory standards but does not serve as permission for operation either. Therefore, the use permit is the essential document that confirms all necessary checks and approvals are in place before the equipment can be utilized.
