[Stoves] Tip over hazard footprint and center of gravity.

Tip over hazard footprint and center of gravity.

I am working on a new stove design and I need the footprint to be large enough to not be a tip over hazard.

As I was testing a prototype I realized that not only the stove height should be considered, but the pot height and weight should be considered, because with a full pot the center of gravity is a lot higher than it is with just an empty stove. 

Are there any guidelines or standards for tip over hazards considering the whole stove system, that is the stove with a full pot?
