1. SCOPE
Scope of this document is to provide a detailed list of inspections and tests, together with the
relevant procedures, applicable to the Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) and Site Acceptance Tests
(SAT) of Isolated Phase Busducts and related accessories.
Dimensions of IPB and related accessories shall be verified to check their compliance with general
layout drawing and detailed (workshop) drawings. The workshop drawings are internal and
confidential but they will be available to inspectors during the FAT. For site inspection, the
compliance of installation with applicable drawings shall be verified all through the process, a final
inspection only could be too late to apply corrective actions if necessary.
For each IPB element and accessory all main dimensions are verified during the construction, e.g.:
length, diameter, position of insulators, supporting collars and flanges. Flanges and holes for
bolted connections are verified as regards holes diameter, holes distance and/or drilling pattern. In
general the correct matching with the coupled element shall be checked. For all others
components and accessories the relevant dimensions and drilling shall be checked. During the
shop test & inspection, the dimensions shall be verified on sample basis.
Reference markings and numbers matching with bill of materials are also checked.
Reference standard is UNI ISO 2768 Part 1, acceptance criteria are the following:
Coupling flanges
± 0,5 mm for holes diameters
± 1,0 mm for holes distances
± 4,0 mm for lengths

The positive result is registered on the inspection report, in case of unfavourable result the
necessary countermeasures shall be taken.
The colour of IPB enclosure shall be visually compared with the colour card, the visual aspect shall
be also checked but it is important to remark that the coating is provided for identification and
aesthetical purposes only (not protective) and a paint touch up will be performed at site after
completion of installation: any small defect will be removed at site.
For the measurement of thickness of painting and galvanization, first of all a calibration of
instrument (Elcometer STD model 345 FN1 or Phynix Surfix model FN21) shall be carried out on a
bare surface of the same base metal: select the correct type of base metal (ferrous or non-ferrous
as applicable) then set the reading to zero after putting the probe on the bare metal.
Choose the calibration foil having a thickness equal to or similar to the required film thickness, and
use it to check the reading on bare metal, calibrate again to the foil thickness if necessary.
Finally, use the probe on the specimen and read the thickness of paint or galvanization in different
samples widely dispersed on the specimen.

If the overpressure does not reach the upper limit of 20 mbar within 10 minutes, the solenoid valve
is closed by a time switch and the low pressure status is highlighted by red light and by low
pressure signal. In order to avoid any accidental excessive overpressure, the pressurization
system is equipped with a safety valve (glycerine valve) calibrated to open the circuit at 30 mbar.
The high pressure signal is also given by a manometer to terminal blocks for remote alarm.
- The functional testing of control system, after successful check of wiring and piping as
per relevant drawings and diagrams, includes:
- check that air flow starts when overpressure is below 5 mbar ± 20%
- check that air flow stops when overpressure reaches 20 mbar ± 20%
- check that high pressure alarm switches on when overpressure exceeds 30 mbar (this
test can be performed in factory using an air receiver and shall not be repeated on site)
- check that low pressure alarm switches after 10 minutes of air flow without reaching the
required overpressure value of 20 mbar
- check of operation without air leakage from pneumatic circuit
The arrangement of power frequency withstand voltage test shall comply with the following circuit

This test is carried out by feeding with rated voltage the auxiliary circuits of each cubicle and then
all the switchboard (LV switchboards and auxiliary circuits of MV switchboards).
The inspector, before starting this phase, operates a visual control on the wiring diagram in order
to find out possible project errors which could cause damages during the testing phase.
This control will help the inspector in the better knowing of the general operation of the equipment.
With the test bench in operation it is possible to check:
- the correct wiring of the switchboard in accordance with the diagrams;
- the operation of the electrical components of the switchboard such as: relays, metering,
measurement instruments, switches, pushbottons, signallers, etc.
- setting of electrical components
The test is considered satisfactory if no abnormalies occurs in comparison with the operating
required and described in the technical specifications.
Operations sequence
Electrical and mechanical interlocks and all the other control devices with a defined operation
sequence must be tested five times without interruptions in scheduled working conditions and for
the auxiliary circuits with the heaviest working parameters.
During the test no regulation can be done.
The test is considered satisfactory if auxiliary devices have properly operated, if they are, after the
tests, in good working conditions and if the operational strain remain the same before and after the
tests.
In case of sequence repeat, for example during FAT test, the number of operation to do can be
reduced to 1.

- when removable or withdrawable parts are equipped with metal supporting surfaces,
these surfaces are considered sufficient for ensuring continuity of protective circuits
provided that the pressure exerted on them is sufficiently high;
- for lids, doors, cover plates and the like, the usual metal screwed connections and
metal hinges are considered sufficient to ensure continuity provided that no electrical
equipment is attached to them. If apparatus with a voltage exceeding the limits of extra- low
voltage are attached to lids, doors, cover plates, etc., steps shall be taken to ensure
continuity of the protection circuits. It is recommended that these parts be fitted with a
carefully attached protective conductor whose cross-sectional area depends on the
maximum cross-section of the supply lead to the equipment attached. An equivalent
electrical connection especially designed for this purpose (sliding contact, hinges
protected against corrosion) shall also be considered satisfactory;
- when the enclosure of an assembly is used as a part of the protection circuit, the cross-
sectional area of this enclosure shall be at least electrically equivalent to the minimum
cross-sectional area specified in Table 1
- the protective circuit shall be interrupted only after the live conductors have been
interrupted and continuity shall be established before the live conductors are reconnected;
- in principle protective circuits within an assembly shall not include a disconnecting
device (switch, disconnector, etc.). The only means permitted in the run of protective
conductors shall be links which are removable by means of a tool and accessible only to
authorized personnel.
Continuity of protective circuits shall be ensured also in case of parts connected with metal painted
parts. In the connection zone it shall be necessary to remove the layer of varnish.
IMPORTANT: in general, it shall be verified that the different exposed conductive parts of the
assembly are effectively connected to the protective circuit.
A measurement may be carried out to verify that the resistance between the terminal for the
incoming protective conductor and the relevant exposed conductive part of the assembly is
sufficiently low.
The cross-sectional area of the protective conductor shall be not less than the appropriate value
shown in Table 1:

The tightening torque for the fixing and connection of Aluminium bars, with Stainless steel bolts,
must be reduced of 45% with reference to the Table 1 Resistance category 8,8: see Table 4.
Furthermore, for this last kind of bars, these value must be considered together with plate washer
of big diameter (type UNI 6593), or with plastic washer (type DIN 2093), which allow a more
uniform distribution of the connection pressure; the bolts are self locked type.
The tightening torque for the fixing and connection of Copper bars, with Stainless steel bolts on
bushing and post insulators with brass insert, must be according to the Table 5.
