This British Standard specifies requirements for unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U) pipes up to and including nominal size 24, for conveying cold potable water at pressures up to and including 9, 12 or 15 bar1) at 20 °C, depending on the size.

Methods of test, associated guidance and information on quality control testing are given in appendices.
