It addresses the common basic principles for gas supply systems. ISO 16486-6:2012 is intended to be applied in association with national standards or codes of practice related to the above-mentioned basic principles. It is applicable to mains and service lines, the components of which are prepared for jointing by scraping and/or machining, and gives instructions for the design, storage, handling, transportation, laying conditions and fusion quality control of PA-U pipes and fittings up to and including 250 mm outside diameter, as well as subsequent joint testing, backfilling, pipe system testing, commissioning and decommissioning.
