    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Specifies requirements for PVC pipes and fittings for pressure applications for use below ground or above ground, where they are not exposed to direct sunlight.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard specifies requirements for PVC pipes and fittings for pressure applications for use below ground or above ground, where they are not exposed to direct sunlight.Appendix B sets out additional requirements for pipes and fittings classed as best environmental practice PVC-U for pressure applications.NOTE: Requirements for the installation and use of pipes and fittings manufactured to this Standard are set out in AS/NZS 2032 and AS/NZS 2566.1, as applicable.
