European foreword
This document (FprCEN/TS 17670-3:2024) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 155
“Plastics piping systems and ducting systems”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.
This document is currently submitted to the Vote on TS.
EN 17670 consists of the following parts, under the general title “Plastics piping systems for non-pressure
underground conveyance of surface water — Unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), polypropylene (PP)
and polyethylene (PE)”:
— Part 1: Specifications for manholes and inspection chambers (under development);
— Part 2: Specification for road gullies;
— Part 3: Assessment of conformity (this document).
This version of Part 3 covers products according to Part 2. Part 1 is still under development and will be
included if/when available.

Introduction
This document details the applicable characteristics to be assessed for type testing (TT), batch release
test (BRT), process verification test (PVT), and audit test (AT), as well as the frequency and sampling for
testing.
The concept of testing and organization of those tests used for the AoC is shown, without or with
certification, in Figures 1 and 2.

audit test
AT
test performed on behalf of a certification body
