G6 test wire MAG welding

Can you please tell me what this test means exactly?
------------------------------------------------
well first of all , the g6 is actually 6g
all that means is a pipe joint placed in a 45 degree fixed position.
usually the bevel on the pipe will be between 30 and 37.5 degrees with a .125" gap.
often times the root is run downhill, and the rest is uphill.
the only way to know for sure is to contact the test supervisor and ask.
every welding test is different depending on job scope.
