This European Standard specifies only those characteristics of pipes and fittings for pressure applications for
water supply, drainage, sewerage and irrigation with the exception of water intended for human consumption
that need to be known to determine if the works in which these are to be installed can satisfy the essential
requirements of the EU Directive(s). Additional characteristics are specified in the documents listed in clause 2
or in other appropriate product specifications.
This harmonised European Standard covers plastics pipes and fittings under pressure. Valves are covered by
