P,d,m brass fittings is it for imperial or metric pipe?

[Inverness]

I went after college to do a homer but I had limited material as I didn't know what to expect. I Went to change the bath taps for a bath mixer but before I cut any pipe I noticed the brass fittings are stamped p,d,m can someone tell me if the copper pipe will be metric or imperial. So I know if I need green rings for next time I go round I'll be prepared.

Any old skool plumbers out there I just want to say I respect the patience and skill that was involved compared to nowadays.
as this bath pipe work must of been done first then the bath.

I can't really answer your question as I can't say I've seen it.

What you want to do is buy a few Stanley organisers and get a few fittings of each in compression and end feed and male irons female irons type thing. Then olives, fibre washers etc then you don't have to worry.

Then continue for a few years and you will have almost a mobile merchant like most of us on here
