This document proposes harmonised verification test conditions for the qualification of welding consumables. The responsibility to identify the extent of the tests to be carried out lies with the manufacturer/supplier on the basis of his assessment of the market requirements. It should be noted that tests in accordance with this document are made in a way which is not necessarily representative of a real welded structure. The requirements for the qualification of welding consumable manufacturers, suppliers and distributors are given in EN 12074. SIST EN 14532-1:2005
