Abstract: Washington Gas (WG) decided to use the electrofusion system as the standardized method for all socket and saddle fusion joining. Butt fusion remains the only conventional method that will be used. The key factors influencing this decision were the desire for higher quality welds, conversion to yellow pipe, and open bidding for our pipe contract among four suppliers. Previously our pink polyethylene was supplied to WG by only one supplier, while yellow pipe was available from four suppliers of acceptable quality. Electrofusion holds promise of simplified training, procedures and improved auditing because the problems associated with inspecting and calibrating of heating irons are elimininated.
