This standard identifies the properties and specifies the minimum performance requirements for paint systems suitable for use in accordance with GIS/PA10. This is achieved through the definition of Function Performance Specification(s) (FPS) for each Specific Painting Application (SPA) identified in GIS/PA10. Where this is no obvious SPA provided by GIS/PA10, the Gas Transporter and Nominated Competent Person shall be contacted for clarification.

This Gas Industry standard specifies the requirements relating to external methods of repairing leaking ferrous gas mains operating at a maximum working pressure of either 2 bar or 7 bar using split fittings suitable for use on grey cast iron, ductile iron and steel distribution mains.

This Gas Industry Standard specifies the minimum requirements for standard weld end preparations for steel pipe, valves, fittings and pipe pups. This standard does not preclude the use of other weld end preparations for specific situations if permitted by the codes and standards which are applicable at the time.

This part of GIS/PL2 specifies requirements for squeeze-off tools and equipment used in the maintenance of polyethylene systems constructed from pipe of nominal size 16 mm to 800 mm inclusive and conforming to GIS/PL2-2 and GIS/PL2-8.

This GIS specifies requirements for rotary type compressors be used for ‘within grid gas compression’, owned and operated by Gas Distribution Networks.

This Gas Industry Standard* sets out requirements for Pig traps, Insulation Joints (IJs), Test ends and Pigs for use on steel pipeline systems operating on natural gas pressures greater than 7 bar and normally in the temperature range -20°C to 50°C. *Hereinafter referred to as 'this specification'.

This GIS specifies requirements for on-package equipment requirement and design of gas compression machinery to be used for ‘within grid gas compression’, and owned and operated by Gas Distribution Networks.

This GIS outlines the general requirements and scope of supply for off-package equipment for gas compression machinery to be owned and operated by Gas Distribution Networks.

This GIS specifies requirements for Low Speed Reciprocating Piston Compression Package requirements to be used for ‘within grid gas compression’, and owned and operated by Gas Distribution Networks.

This GIS specifies requirements for High Speed Reciprocating Compression Packages to be used for ‘within grid gas compression’, and owned and operated by Gas Distribution Networks.

Note: This is an interim specification which is still under development. Fittings may continue to be assessed against, and certified for conformance with, either GIS/F7: 2006 or GIS/F7:2021 until a replacement specification for both documents is published.

This Gas Industry Standard specifies requirements for the components used in external press fit stainless steel network riser systems supplying multiple occupancy premises with natural gas in accordance with IGEM/G/5 at pressures up to and including 75 mbar and diameters up to 108mm.

This Gas Industry Standard (GIS) specifies the requirements for new unfired pressure vessels, manufactured from carbon, ferritic alloy and austenitic stainless steels.

This GIS specifies additional and modified requirements for the manufacture of pipe to BS EN ISO 3183 PSL 2, for maximum operating pressures up to 7 bar and in the standard sizes specified

This Gas Industry Standard (GIS) defines the characteristics of, and performance requirements for, single or twin ferrule compression fittings made of stainless steel. The ferruled connectors in this standard are suitable for use with fully annealed stainless steel tubing in conformance with ASTM A269.

This part of GIS/PL2 specifies requirements for polyethylene pipes, with a strength classification of PE100 1) in the nominal size range 16 mm to 800 mm inclusive for use at operating pressures not greater than 7.0 bar and operating temperatures in the range of 0 °C to 40 °C.
