BS EN ISO 15609-5:2004 specifies requirements for the content of welding procedure specifications for resistance spot, seam, butt and projection welding processes. The acceptability of applying the principles of the standard to other resistance and related welding processes should be established before any qualification is undertaken.
Variables listed in this standard are those influencing either weld dimensions (quality), weld nugget dimension, weld pattern positioning, mechanical properties or geometry of the welded joint.
