The European standardisation activities of the CEN/TC 234 necessitated the technical and editorial Revision of the national set of gas supply rules, with the objective being to eradicate contradictions and harmonise them with the requirements of the European standards and the formally amended framework conditions, ensuring at the same time that the application of the DVGW Set of Rules will also meet the requirements of the European standards that regulate the distribution of gas.

Where reasonable and necessary, the requirements of this Standard G 472 have been harmonised with those of DVGW Standard G 462, including, among other things, the revision of minimum distances and the requirement for acceptance test certificates 3.1 in accordance with DIN EN 10204 for components for operating pressures above 5 bar.
