Hello,
First post here so please be gentle:o
Have done some research & think I have a reasonable understanding but reading through all the regulations etc is very heavy going so am hoping for some confirmation ;
If I have 'created' a 'pressure vessel/system' by connecting a remote condenser using pipework with a max allowable working pressure ( say 20 bar), should my pressure test be 20 x 1-43?
Also, what should the lift setting on my safety valve be; assuming correct sizing for exhaust ( is it 10% above max working pressure)?
