You can very well conduct PT after Root pass while welding SS, only ensure that temp. has come below 52 degreeC.

We regularly conduct PT after root pass when welding SS jobs even upto 70mm thick with GTAW.

The chances of cracking after GTAW root pass is seen in thick sections of CS and LAS material i.e above 20/25mm thick OR having high restraints. Hence while welding such materials,we conduct PT after hot pass only.

For thin sections LPT can be done safely after root pass for CS/LAS material.

But, in normal practice,any weld is not to be stopped before completing hot pass or 1/3rd of groove thickness. I got difficulty in following both conditions on single weld joint.
