Dutch term or phrase: Installatieleidingen
In een diploma voor verwarmingsmonteur, staan de volgende 3 examenvakken:
Aanleggen verwarmingsleidingen
Aanleggen installatieleidingen
Aansluiten CV-toestellen and CV-leidingen

Het is de tweede term waar ik niet goed raad mee weet - wat zijn installatieleidingen?

installation piping
Explanation:
As I understand it, this is a generic term for any piping carrying or transporting gas, water, air, electricity etc. to or from a device.

http://wetten.overheid.nl/BWBR0010586/geldigheidsdatum_18-04...
installatieleidingen: onderdelen van een leidingstelsel die voor de verplaatsing van stoffen dienen, wanneer zij zijn verbonden om in een ander onder druk staand systeem te worden geïntegreerd, met name bestaande uit een pijp of een pijpenstelsel, buizen, fittingen, expansieverbindingen en slangen of eventueel andere onder druk staande delen alsmede warmtewisselaars bestaande uit pijpen voor het koelen of verhitten van lucht;

http://www.vugt.nl/Download/documents/productproperty/1888/n...
Bij het ontwerpen van een installatie moeten de afmetingen van alle installatieleidingen
bepaald worden aan de hand van de maximale hoeveelheid gas van de aan te sluiten
apparaten.
http://www.omegaflex.co.uk/Documents/Sizing.pdf
When designing an installation the sizes of all installation piping shall be determined from the maximum gas rate of the appliances to be connected. Allowance should also be made for the possibility of future extensions, especially if the piping is to be buried. For natural gas at 21 mbar the pressure drop between the outlet of the meter and the points to be connected shall not exceed 1 mbar at maximum flow conditions. Low pressure 3 family gas supplies should be regulated at 28 mbar (Butane) or 37 mbar (Propane), with a pressure drop not exceeding 2.5 mbar.

@Tina: I hadn't thought about that problem yet. How about 'implementation of installation piping? Or, as Carolyn suggests, 'installation pipe fitting'?

neutral  Jack den Haan: Hmm.. might be a bit overdone for a relatively simple domestic heating system, Casey.
9 hrs
  -> Perhaps Jack. But I don't see a reference pertaining to the scope of the work. Conversely, I think 'installation pipe fitting' is going further away from the most appropriate translation.

installing utility lines


Explanation:
seeing as gas, power etc. are generally seen as "utilities", this is common translation.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you for the elaborate explanation Jack. I thought it was something like that but then I get 'installing installation piping' - it sounds funny.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Carolyn Gille: yes, and not 'installation of xxx'. Perhaps maybe "installation pipe fitting"
9 hrs

system pipework


Explanation:
Since it seems to be referring to heating, I would go with system and not installation. Another option is unit.
