  1. TESTING AND COMMISSIONING PROCEDURE • WHY • All equipments after erection / assembly on site, should be tested in order to check that its future operation will not be at risk. • Provide a base to evaluate the equipment at its inception and to monitor the performance of physical asset during its economic life. • “Nothing should be taken for granted and no connection should be assumed to be correct until it has been tested and proved”

  2. Testing and commissioning procedure contd… • RECORDS • Equipment Inspection Record • Handing over record for pre-commissioning ( Erection – pre-commissioning) • Handing over record for energisation ( Pre-commissioning – Energisation ) • The test records had to be signed by the responsible personnel from the supplier, erection agency and Powergrid representative. • Deviation etc if any are to be clearly brought out and are to be duly approved by the commissioning incharge depending upon the deviation

  3. Testing and commissioning procedure contd… • DISTRIBUTION OF TEST RECORDS • Regional O&M • Corporate OS • Corporate Engg • Supplier of Equipment • Erection Agency

  4. ENERGISATION • Energisation is the first time connection of the sub-station equipments to the high voltage system. It is to be done stepwise in the smallest possible zones ( called sub-systems. • SUB-SYSTEM LIMITS • Main circuits • AC equipments- AC yard, control & protection • Station auxiliaries • PLCC • AC&Ventilation • Illumination • Fire Protection • others

  5. OVERALL PROCEDURE • Instruction for the work and supervision is given by the test leader • All switching and all operational activities will be executed by the regular shift personnel. • Ascertain that the sub-system to be energised is ready for operation and has been properly handed over in writing • Before proceeding check & obtain confirmation from CPCC/RLDC • Energisation is executed by closure of the CB • Inspection as well as instrument readings are taken. • When the whole system has been energised including the AC line it will be kept in this state for ” 8 ” hours or more.

  6. SAFETY PROCEDURE • Energisation implies an abrupt and serious change of the working conditions in the plant. • In order to avoid serious accidents thorough information must be dissipated to all personnel and rigorous discipline enforced. • All equipments tests and pre-commissioning tests must have been completed, terminated and documentated. • Sub-system must be bounded by warning signs. Guards shall be posted at suitable positions. • All non-regular objects removed ( ladders, tools, vehicles, work benches, debris etc ) • Thorough inspection of all areas by commissioning in charge ( Test leader ) • No deviation whatsoever are not to be tolerated.
