gluing PVC into running setup

[lastlight]

I need to add a T fitting into my return to feed a frag tank. How long before I can safely start the return up again ? I know the joint itself is fine after prob 15 seconds but I'm concerned about the safety of my inhabitants.

Using standard primer and glue thx.

I just extended my emergency overflow piping to the sump and used
Carlon all weather quick set clear PVC glue, that requires no primer, and had no problems. It's the primer not the glue that I would concerned with. This glue is made for the grey electrical PVC which is the same as the white stuff except the grey pipe and fittings are uv resistant I'm told. Bought it at Home depot.

I've done the same thing, left it a couple minutes and started the water back up. No issues.

All I have here is the primer and glue. Did any of you use that or everyone had the primer free method? I don't mind making a trip to get some. Thx!

Honestly, I've never used primer in PVC.
