1. INTRODUCTION The purpose of these specifications is to assure that all tested electrical equipment and systems supplied by SEE (SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC EGYPT & NEA) are operational and within applicable standards and tolerances And that equipment and systems are installed in accordance with design specifications. The need for acceptance testing of electrical power systems is very clear to those with extensive start-up and/or operating experience. Shipping and installation damage, field and factory wiring errors, manufacturing defects, And systems and components not in accordance with drawings and specifications are some of the many problems that can be detected by appropriate testing. When these defects are found before start-up they can be corrected under warranty and without the safety hazards and possible equipment and consequential damages of loss of use/production that can occur if discovered after startup or energizing. In addition, test results obtained during acceptance testing are invaluable as base reference data for the periodic testing that is an essential element of an effective maintenance program. This document lists a majority of the field test available for assessing the suitability for service and reliability of the power distribution system. As a further note, it is important to follow the recommendations contained in the manufacturer’s instruction manuals. Many of the details of a complete and effective acceptance testing procedure can only be obtained from that source. This document details the Field inspection, testing and commissioning procedures that must be followed during commissioning and startup of electrical equipment. These inspections and tests are performed on new Equipment, after installation and prior to energizing, in order to confirm that: 1. The equipment has not been damaged during shipment or installation. 2. The equipment is in compliance with the purchase specification and design intent. 3. Documented test records that can serve as benchmarks for future tests.

2. SAFETY Proper safety procedures shall be reviewed and followed before each activity listed in this procedure. Job Safety Analysis followed by a toolbox/pre-job meeting shall be conducted prior to any activity listed in this procedure. Services Employees are NOT authorized to work on live equipment. There may be occasions in which you are taking measurements or checking voltages within an energized enclosure, but you are NOT authorized to “do Hands on Live” repairs. Company representative does not typically perform shutdown and/or switching operations, because these operations may result in damage to property or persons downstream of the equipment as a result of conduct, errors, or omissions made by others. If a customer requests Company representative to perform such services, technicians must contact their Manager for approval and proper procedures.

Actual test results are dependent on the length of the conductor being tested, the temperature of the insulating material, and the humidity of the surrounding environment at the time of the test. In addition, insulation resistance tests are performed to establish a trending pattern and a deviation from the baseline information obtained during maintenance testing enabling the evaluation of the insulation for confined use.

Min. Result: Recommended Minimum Transformer Insulation Resistance Results: In the absence of consensus standards for minimum acceptable transformer insulation resistance, the NETA Standards Review Council recommends the use of the following formula. Although the origin of this formula is not identified, NETA recognizes its wide use in the electrical testing industry. IR = CE/√KVA IR = Minimum recommended one minute insulation resistance C = Constant E = Phase-to-phase voltage for delta connected windings; phase-to-neutral voltage for star connected windings.
