AS/NZS 2980:2018
Qualification of welders for fusion welding of steels - Additional requirements for Australia and New Zealand
Specifies additional requirements to be used in conjunction with AS/NZS ISO 9606.1 for qualification testing of welders for fusion welding of steels, which are for certain unique Australian and New Zealand conditions. For all other situations, the requirements of AS/NZS ISO 9606.1 apply. Appendix A provides guidance on the application of AS/NZS ISO 9606.1 in relation to this Standard. This Standard applies to welding processes including fusion-welding processes that are designated as manual and mechanized welding. It does not cover fully automated welding processes, nor does it deal with the certification of welders.
