    Test pressure of PN flanges x 1.5 design pressure...........where does this come from???

    I have a question on design pressure of PN flanges and test pressure. My understanding is that a PN10 flange can take 10barg design pressure, and that you can test the flanged pipe to 1.5 x the design pressure. PN10 flanged pipe can take up to 15barg test pressure. Similar for PN16 flanges they...
