This International Standard specifies terms and definitions, specification and qualification of 2G HTS joining
procedure. A welding procedure specification (WPS) is needed to provide a basis for planning joining
operations and for quality control during joining. Joining is considered as a special process in the terminology
of standards for quality systems. Standards for quality systems usually require that special processes be
carried out in accordance with written procedure specifications. This has resulted in the establishment of a set
of rules for qualification of the joining procedure prior to the release of the WPS to actual production. This part
of ISO 17279 defines these rules.
This standard does not cover soldering, brazing or any fillers, which are currently available in the industry.
This International Standard can be applied for joining of all kinds of 2G HTSs. This standard does not apply to
1st Generation Bismuth Strontium Calcium Copper Oxide (1G BSCCO) type HTS and Low Temperature
Superconductor (LTS) Joining.
