scope:
This standard has been prepared such that:
- it is independent of the type of welded construction to be manufactured;
- it defines quality requirements for welding both in production plants and on site;
- it provides guidance for describing a manufacturers capability to produce welded constructions to meet specified requirements;
- it can also be used as a basis for assessing the manufacturer in respect to his welding capability.
This standard is appropriate when demonstration of a manufacturer's or a sub-contractor's capability to produce welded constructions, fulfilling specified quality requirements, are specified in one or more of the following:
- a contract between involved parties;
- an application standard;
- a regulatory requirement.
The requirements contained within this standard can be adopted in full or can be selectively deleted by the manufacturer if not applicable to the construction concerned. They provide a flexible framework for the control of welding in the following cases:
- Case 1
To provide specific requirements for resistance welding in contracts which require the manufacturer or sub-contractor to have a quality system in accordance with EN ISO 9001 or EN ISO 9002.
- Case 2
To provide specific requirements for resistance welding in contracts which require the manufacturer or sub-contractor to have a quality system other than EN ISO 9001 or EN ISO 9002.
- Case 3
To provide specific requirements for resistance welding as guidance to a manufacturer of su-contractor developing a quality system.
- Case 4
To provide specific requirements for references in application standards which uses resistance welding as part of its requirements or in a contract between relevant parties. It is however more appropriate for EN ISO 14554-2 to be used in such cases.
For general guidelines for selection and use see EN 729-1 with the exception of Annex B and under consideration that for resistance welding only comprehensive and elementary quality requirements are specified. Annex A in this standard applies for resistance welding.
