Guideline F-15

  • WGP date: 20/06/2017

Question

  • Where approval of operating procedures for permanent joining is required by the PED and the approval is granted on the basis of a document other than a harmonized standard, should this approval explicitly mention the PED?

Answer

Yes.

The approval certificate should also indicate the tests performed in addition to those in the document used for approval.

If certificates do not include a reference to the PED, the application of the last paragraph of Annex I Section 3.1.2 shall be checked through the detailed examination of the WPQR (Welding Procedure Qualification Record).
