@ Sridhar M,
Firstly a properly manufactured PE pipe from a reputed raw material and correct butt welding or other jointing procedures like butt welding/ socket fusion/ electro fusion should not leak. The apparent leak which you are experiencing could be due to transition fittings with other materials like steel, metal or non metal joints. All flange joints, fitting and fixtures need to inspected and it may please be ensured that good quality gaskets are used in the utility transmission or distribution main. You can also check whether the loss is due to the customer using a wrong material or jointing procedure at his retail outlet.
