  • An operating pressure not exceeding 21 mbar (nominal) at the outlet of the primary meter regulator
  • A diameter not exceeding 150 mm
  • The operating pressure at the inlet of the primary meter regulator does not exceed 75 mbar

This assessment will not assess testing for soundness and direct purging outside the range listed above and it may be preferable for operatives to instead undertake category TPCP1 below.
