Hi Kiran,
For SAW the wire flux classification is important than filler metal alone. Sec-IX,QW-404.9 addresses this issue.
A change from EH14 (1.8% Mn) to EL8( less than 1% Mn) would cause significant reduction in weld metal mechanical properties.
Hence this change may not be allowed unless a new PQR is qualified.
Thanks.
