Welding and allied processes — Guidelines for measurement of welding energies

Le présent rapport technique donne des indications sur la manière de mesurer l''énergie de soudage pour les procédés de soudage à l''arc et de calculer l''apport de chaleur avec exactitude, aussi bien pour les systèmes de soudage traditionnels que pour ceux utilisant des formes d''onde complexes. Ce document vient en complément des normes de la série NF EN ISO 15614 qui exigent un relevé des énergies de soudage mises en oeuvre lors de la réalisation d''une qualification de mode opératoire de soudage.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:

  • mandatory clauses to satisfy,
  • non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.

With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
