Instead users of the BS EN 12201 series should refer to Water Industry Specification (WIS) 4-32-08 Specification for the fusion jointing of polyethylene pressure pipeline systems using PE80 and PE100 materials, obtainable from www.water.org.uk. In addition, guidance provided by the manufacturer of the pipes and fittings should be followed. NOTE 2 Part 7 of the EN 12201 series has been prepared as a CEN/TS to allow further development. CEN/TS 12201-7 is not mandatory under the Public Procurement Directives (2004/18/EC and 2004/17/EC). As yet there is no pan-European agreement on water quality requirements, so existing UK regulations remain in force for public drinking water suppliers.

For further information, go to: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/browse As part of the regulations, all pipes and fittings used to convey drinking water supplies are required to be approved under the provisions of Regulation 31, as applicable. In addition, manufacturers may obtain approval under the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) to confirm that use of their products will not cause adverse effect on water quality or a risk to health of consumers. National Annex NA provides additional information on the selection and installation of piping systems and components in the UK.
