Introduction
This document covers the principles to be observed in the qualification testing of welder performance
for the welding of thermoplastic materials.
The ability of the welder to follow verbal or written instructions and testing of his skill are important
factors in ensuring the quality of the welded product.
This document is intended to provide the basis for the mutual recognition by examining bodies for
qualification relating to welders competence in the various fields of application.
