Bringing Electrical Appliances into Undergraduate Residents’ Rooms

If you wish to place a refrigerator or other sizable/ high energy consumption electrical appliances in your rooms, please fill in and submit the “Bringing Electrical Appliances into Undergraduate Residents’ Rooms” form for seeking formal approval. Upon receipt of your application form, the staff of HMU will conduct an onsite visit for verifying the information provided and/or gathering more information if it is necessary. 

For the sake of residents’ safety and environmentally friendly, it is necessary for specifications/ criteria to be imposed. Here comes the highlights of specifications/ criteria for the use of refrigerators in residents’ rooms:

1. One refrigerator per room; and
2. Freestanding and single door; and
3. Size limit for academic year 2019/20: a refrigerator which is too big could put residents living in the same room at high risk. Any fridge installed in a room should not exceed 1300mm (Height) x 550mm (Length/ Depth) x 500mm (Width)
4. The refrigerator should not occupy too much space of the room. Moreover, it should not obstruct the fire exit or passage of any bedroom/ suite/ common area ; and
5. Plug and cable are in good condition; and
6. The electricity plug of the refrigerator has to be inserted into a wall socket and is not allowed to insert into an extension unit; and
7. 3-pin plug which complies with the safety requirements stipulated by the EMSD; and
8. The refrigerator meets the local statutory safety requirements stipulated by the EMSD; and
9. Since the University provides refrigerators on each floor, a surcharge of HK$135 (for the 1st semester only) , HK$345 (for both 1st and 2nd semesters) or HK$189 (for the 2nd semester only) will be imposed separately on the use of refrigerator, if permission is granted. 

Having a refrigerator or other sizable/ high energy consumption electrical appliances to be used in a room without seeking prior approval of HMU and Warden will be considered as creating hazard in the dormitory. HMU and the Warden Team will take such behavior seriously. Your understanding and cooperation is highly appreciated.
