For GRP pipes or fittings, the calculated maximum internal water pressure in bars which the pipe or fitting, as manufactured, will withstand, without failure, for 50 years at 23 °C. This pressure is determined by extrapolation of results of long-term pressure tests, taking into account a factor of safety for those nominal service conditions.

OBS

maximum allowable pressure: term and definition standardized by ISO.
