French translation:"Pression manométrique en livres par pouce carré"
Explanation:
Hi Nela!

It appears that your context (i.e. test pressure) seems to indicate that PSIG would stand for: "Pound per Square Inch Gauge." Then the above translation could be used.

Please note the following for your French text:

"Dans l'usage parlé et écrit, on n'utilise guère que l'abréviation francisée "psig".
En pratique, dans le cas de la "pression relative" (pression lue au manomètre), on utilise rarement l'abréviation "psig", mais plutôt "psi".

Hope to be of help to you!
