Introduction                                    

The Gas Industry Standards replace product standards for all Gas Distribution Networks (GDN’s) - National Grid, Scotia Gas Networks, Northern Gas Networks and Wales & West Utilities.

As part of the gas network sales process the Industry agreed to collaborate and develop a suite of Industry product standards which are now approved and published on this website.

The common objective of the GDN’s is to introduce product standards that are consistent across the industry and that place the responsibility of evidence of conformance from purchaser to supplier. This will prevent divergence of standards thereby avoiding added cost and complexity in manufacturing and confusion in the market place.

All published GIS which are applicable to products that are fixed assets associated with the gas distribution system, gas carrying or safety related when working on or within close proximity to the gas supply system require Kitemarking.

For other published GIS Kitemarking  is desirable but not essential.
