National foreword
This British Standard was prepared by Technical Committee PRI/61 and is the English
language version of EN 1277 : 1996 Plastics piping systems Thermoplastics piping
systems for buried non-pressure applications Test methods for leaktightness of
elastomeric sealing ring type joints, published by the European Committee for
Standardization (CEN).
It is incorporated into BS 2782 Methods of testing plastics : Part 11 : Thermoplastics
pipes, fittings and valves, as Methods 1112L, M, N, and Q : 1996, for association with
related test methods for plastics materials and plastics piping components, as follows.
This test method has been prepared for reference by other standards under
preparation by CEN for specification of plastics piping systems and components. It has
been implemented to enable experience of the method to be gained and for use for
other fresh applications.
It is also for use for the revision or amendment of other national standards as
practicable, but it should not be presumed to apply to any existing standard or
specification which contains or makes reference to a different test method until that
standard/specification has been amended or revised to make reference to this method
and adjust any requirements as appropriate. This method supersedes BS 2782 : Part 11 :
Method 1112A : 1989, which becomes obsolescent except for supporting references
thereto in BS 4576 : Part 1 : 1989, BS 4660 : 1989 and BS 5255 : 1989.
Warning note. This British Standard, which is identical with EN 1277 : 1996, does not
necessarily detail all the precautions necessary to meet the requirements of the Health
and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974. Attention should be paid to any appropriate safety
precautions and the method should be operated only by trained personnel.
Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity
from legal obligations.

English version
This European Standard was approved by CEN on 1996-01-27. CEN members are
bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the
conditions for giving this European Standard the status of a national standard
without any alteration.
Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such national standards
may be obtained on application to the Central Secretariat or to any CEN member.
This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German).
A version in any other language made by translation under the responsibility of a
CEN member into its own language and notified to the Central Secretariat has the
same status as the official versions.
CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Denmark,
Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands,
Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
