DRAFT GUIDELINE ON DOMESTIC GAS PIPING SYSTEM


                                                   Underground gas piping



                                                                                   150 mm



                                          300 mm         Other buried facilities

                                       Parallel layout distance    Cross layout distance


                   Clearance from electrical cable and lightning arrestor should be as per table below:

                                    Buried Facility       Clearance (mm)

                              Low voltage cable                > 100
                              High voltage cable              > 1000

                              Lightning arrestor              > 1500



                   Drain Crossing

                   Drain crossing gas pipe should be installed under the drain as shown in the following figure:

                                          Ground level
                                                  at least    Channel/Drain    at least
                                                  300 mm                       300 mm




                                                            at least 300 mm

                                                     Typical Drain Crossing

                   Connection of plastic piping (polyethylene piping)

                   When plastic piping (polyethylene pipe) is used as underground piping, connection between
                   metallic  pipe  (steel)  and  polyethylene  pipe  shall  be  made  only  outside,  underground  and
                   with approved transition fittings.

                   Isolation Joint Installation

                   Isolation joint shall be installed in the following location:

                     o  Location where pipes or fittings made of different materials are joined in buried portion.
                     o  Transition portion between underground and aboveground piping.
