BS EN ISO 15792-3:2008 describes preparation and assessment of a fillet weld test piece.
BS EN ISO 15792-3 applies, when invoked by the classification standard, to the classification of arc welding electrodes and wires for welding carbon-manganese steels, low alloy steels, stainless steels and nickel base alloys. It describes the preparation of the test piece and the evaluation of the test results, for assessing conformance to requirements of positional usability and root penetration set forth by the classification standard for electrode or wire.
This part of ISO 15792 does not set forth the acceptance requirements. Test conditions prescribed and results required should not be considered to be requirements or expectations for a procedure qualification.
BS EN ISO 15792-3:2008 supersedes BS EN 1597-3:1997 which is withdrawn.
