California Plumbing Code (Title 24, Part 5) · 2019 edition · updated 2026-09-10 · California

Italicized text is a California amendment to the model code, as printed in the official publication.

The installation procedure for underground piping shall protect the piping from physical damage while being backfilled. [NFPA 99:5.1.10.11.5.2] 1310.6.1 Conduit, Cover, or Enclosure. If underground piping is protected by a conduit, cover, or other enclosure, the following requirements shall be met: (1) Access shall be provided at the joints for visual

inspection and leak testing.

1310.7.1 Flexible Connectors. Flexible connectors, metallic or nonmetallic, shall have a minimum burst pressure with a gauge pressure of 1000 psi (6895 kPa).

[NFPA 99:5.1.10.11.6.2] 1310.7.2 Metallic Flexible Joints. Metallic flexible joints shall be permitted in the pipeline where required for expansion joints, seismic protection, thermal expansion, or vibration control and shall be as follows: (1) For all wetted surfaces, made of bronze, copper, or

stainless steel.
