There is nothing in the codes pertaining to this Hp / LP. Years ago, welders who welded heavy wall Cr. piping that was pre heated in fossil fuel plants were called
HOT WELDERS. This was a slang term that probably started in a bar after work. The term has persisted somewhat as these welders still refer to themselves as 'HOT WELDERS.' The term (H)igh (P)ressure welders originated in the same way. This term again refers to a welder who welds on the high temperature, high pressure Main Steam lines which are pre heated. These welders were considered the BEST welders because they had to perform these welds while enduring the high temperatures from the pre-heating equipment. Consequently they worked thru dinner time & got overtime as a bonus. These welds are heavy wall like 2-3 inchs or more and are X-Rayed & stressed relieved. A High Pressure, HP. welder is an archaic term. Nevertheless these guys are considered the 'crème of the crop. LP has to mean a Low Pressure welder. One who welds on water lines, no X-Ray, etc. If your client wants you to categorize your welders HP & LP I don't see a problem. You should now which welders that are qualifying are really good, and which welders are just so-so. And your inspectors in the field should know
which ones are really good and those who are average.
