Polyethylene pipes and fittings for the supply of gaseous fuels or water — Training and assessment of fusion operators

Tubes et raccords en polyéthylène pour l'alimentation en combustibles gazeux ou en eau — Formation et évaluation des opérateurs de soudage

Abstract / scope

This Technical Specification specifies the training, assessment and approval of fusion operators, with
the aim of establishing and maintaining their competency in the construction of polyethylene (PE)
piping systems for the supply of gaseous fuels in accordance with ISO/TS 10839, for the supply of
water, or in the construction of such systems used in other pressure applications. It covers the butt
fusion and electrofusion fusion jointing techniques and considers both the theoretical and practical
knowledge necessary for making high-quality fusion joints.
