DOE-SPEC-3021-97

b. Documents identifying deviations and their acceptance.

c. Performance test results.

6.1.1

Purpose of tests. Factory and field tests shall be conducted to determine that

the materials and work are free from defects and to establish that the design and

construction meet the requirements of this specification and the purchase order.

Owner acceptance of the equipment shall not relieve the Seller of responsibility

for meeting all the requirements of this specification.

6.1.2

Expense of testing. The cost of equipment, instruments, tools, personnel and

other expenses incidental to the tests, including replacement of damaged

materials and subsequent retests, shall be borne by Seller. This does not

include Owner's expense in witnessing the tests.

Failed tests. If the UPS system or any part of it fails to meet the specified

6.1.3

performance guarantees, correct/rework or replace the part which fails, as

mutually agreed with the Owner.

Tests results. Submit test results for Owner review.

6.1.4

6.2.1

Standard inspections. The UPS system shall be completely wired and adjusted

at the factory and given standard inspections, wiring checks, and operation and

dielectric tests to ensure completeness, adequacy and proper functioning of

equipment in accordance with the requirements of this specification and

standards and codes. Even though Seller performs the required tests and the

equipment meets the acceptance criteria, Seller will not be relieved of the

responsibility of providing equipment conforming to all the requirements of the

specification.

6.2.2

Wiring tests. Factory test the control wiring as follows:

a. Perform a continuity test on each circuit.

b. Conduct an insulation-resistance test on each circuit with equipment

connected, using a 1000-V megger. The insulation resistance shall be not

less than 25 megohms. (This test is not applicable to circuits containing

semiconductors.)

6.2.3

NEMA tests. As a minimum, perform the following tests on the assembled UPS

system in accordance with NEMA PE 1 and PE 5:

a. Light load

b. Synchronization
