Suggested Learning Activities:

Objectives

16.1-16.3

Discuss with the maintenance manager, engineering manager, or an

experienced shift supervisor when testing is required and how to

determine appropriate testing. This discussion should focus on the

principles for determining what test is needed and understanding the

intent of the test [i.e., testing that will verify proper operational

performance of the equipment and system(s) worked on and isolated

during the work]. Discuss the adequacy of facility conditions for safe test

performance and evaluating test results. Focus on the responsibility and

authority of the shift supervisor, the basis for this authority, and

associated responsibilities as seen by facility and design engineering

managers. Also, apply these testing principles to a discussion of post-

maintenance testing and, as appropriate, post-modification testing.

16.2-16.4

Use a case study approach to post-modification and post-maintenance

testing including determining appropriate testing, considerations for

authorizing performance, who should be consulted if advice is desired,

typical situations when authorization should not be given or should be

delayed in order to involve the facility management team, and evaluate

the test results for follow-up action as necessary. Operating experience

listed in occurrence reports can support this activity.
