Natural Gas

Are there natural gas ranges with automatic shut-off system?

I have a natural gas range with electric spark ignition (no pilot). If the flame is put out because of air flow or any other reason, the gas flow is not shut off automatically. In many countries, gas ranges come with a very simple device (i.e., a thermocouple) that shuts off the gas flow in such situations. What mechanism is designed in Canadian appliances to prevent the danger of gas emission?

i do not believe so.......in the u.s. there is a simple fitting shut off device that attaches to the gas range flex connector that simply shuts down the flow if the connector is broken etc....this happens when a range is pulled out and the connector is broken - i strongly think this will work for if a large amount of gas is blowing, i.e. (burner) it will shut itself down - might want to look into this..
