[MW:1571] Some clarifications for BS EN 15614-1 : 2004

Dear all,
 
I appreciate your feedback/views on following;
 
1)   1st Para of 8.4.2 reads -- "Welding of a test in any one position ( pipe or plate) qualifies for welding in all positions(pipe or plate) except for PG and J-L045 where a separate welding procedure test shall be required."  ******** 4th Para reads -- "When neither impact nor hardness requirements are specified, welding in any one position (pipe or plate) qualifies for welding in all positions (pipe or plate)"
As per above description what one should do when Hardness and Impact requirements are not specified ( i.e. what is applicable Para 1 Or Para 4?)
 
2) Table 7 row#2, when Dia. of test piece is greater than 25mm  -- Range of Qualification is Greater than or equal to 0.5x Diameter ( 25 mm min).
I understand from above is that the qualification range is greater than or equal to 0.5x Diameter and where this value is less than 25 mm ( Say 0.5x Dia = 20 mm or 15 mm ) it should be taken as min. 25 mm.
If somebody wants to interpreate this  as min. 25 mm i.e. the range starts from 25mm as lower limit -- Is this right? I think its wrong.
 
Please have your views on above points.
 
Thanks.
