0. FOREWORD
0.1 This Indian
Standard
( Part 2 ) ( First
Revision ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian
Standards on 20 June 1988, after the draft finalized by the Sanitary Appliances and Water Fittings
Sectional Committee had been approved by the
Civil Engineering Division Council.
0.2 The fabricated PVC fittings are to be used
for jointing to the PVC pipes covered by IS :
4985-1988*.
0.3 The requirements of fabricated PVC fittings
are covered in thirteen parts. This part ( Part 2 )
deals with specific requirements for sockets.
Other parts are as follows:

This part was
first published in 1982. The present revision has
been taken up to extend the size of fittingsto
630 mm in line with the sizes of pipes specified
in IS : 49851988.
0.4 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement
of this standard is complied
with, the final value, observed or calculated,
expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall
