EN 1555-5:2002 (E)51 ScopeThis part of EN 1555 specifies requirements of fitness for purpose of the polyethylene (PE) piping system in thefield of the supply of gaseous fuels.It specifies the definitions of electrofusion, butt fusion and mechanical joints.It also specifies the method of preparation of test piece joints, relating to installation recommendations given inEN 12007-2:2000[1] and the tests to be carried out on these joints for assessing the fitness for purpose of thesystem under normal and extreme conditions.It also specifies the test parameters for the test methods referred to in this standard.In conjunction with the other parts of EN 1555 (see Foreword) it is applicable to PE pipes, fittings, valves, theirjoints and to joints with components of other materials intended to be used under the following conditions:a)
a maximum operating pressure, MOP, up to and including 10 bar 1);b)
an operating temperature of 20 °C as reference temperature.NOTE 1
For other operating temperatures, derating coefficients should be used, see annex A.EN 1555 covers a range of maximum operating pressures and gives requirements concerning colours andadditives.NOTE 2
It is the responsibility of the purchaser or specifier to make the appropriate selections from these aspects, taking into account theirparticular requirements and any relevant national regulations and installation practices or codes.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.
