A.2.10.1.1.3 Power System Test: Remove the control signal from one semiconductors of the inverter
bridge.

A.2.10.1.3.1 The voltage or frequency variation shall be within the defined static and dynamic
calibration range.
A.2.10.1.3.2 The unit(s) without inserted defect shall take the load, while the unit with inserted
defect shall be inhibited, informing the inserted defect by the alarms.
This test is similar to the previous case (A.2.10.1), however, the simulation shall be performed by
shutting down the redundant parallel system units. The test shall be performed with rated active load
applied to the UPSs.
A.2.10.2.3.1 The voltage or frequency variation shall be within the defined static and dynamic
calibration range.
A.2.10.2.3.2 The remaining unit(s) shall take the load, while the unit that was shut down shall

With the output fed by inverter branch, perform the transfer to by-pass through the manual command
switch. The static switch shall switch to by-pass. This test shall be performed in 10 points, considering
the two most critical points. Perform this test for 0 %, 50 % and 100 % of rated linear load of UPS.
A.2.11.1.3.1 No frequency variation shall be observed in output waveform within the established
limits.
A.2.11.1.3.2 Tolerance: variations under 1 regarding the fundamental sinusoidal signal and
observed (transient) variations under 10 % of the real value at the moment of switching.
A.2.11.1.3.3 No test of this item shall have interruption of output voltage above 4 ms.
With the output fed by inverter branch, perform the transfer to by-pass through total shut down of
inverter. A way to perform this test is by shutting down the battery circuit breakers, and then turning off
the rectifier. This test shall be performed in 10 points, considering the two most critical points. Perform
this test for 0 %, 50 % and 100 % of rated linear load of UPS.
A.2.11.3 Operation out of Synchronism with Alternative Source - Manual Operation to Transfer
A.2.11.3.1.1 With the UPS feeding the loads by the inverter branch, try to perform the manual transfer
of static switch to by-pass.
43
-PUBLIC-
A.2.11.3.1.2 In laboratory, this test shall be performed by varying the by-pass frequency out of
operational range of UPS.
A.2.11.3.1.3 The test shall be performed with rated active load applied to the UPS.
A.2.11.4.1.1 Loads shall be operating by the inverter branch and without synchronism between
inverter and by-pass. The test shall be performed by causing a failure in inverter branch (the battery
shall be turned off, followed by the rectifier).
A.2.11.4.1.2 The test shall be performed with reference rated active load.
The transfer shall take place in a specific time of 1 cycle (16,66 ms). This time is required so that
the DC component of consumer circuits decreases to a low value in module and, even in the worst
situation (180 º) of phase difference between inverter and alternative source, the switching shall not
generate degrees of current high enough to turn off protections of critical feeding switchboards.
NOTE UPS feeding motor loads, the dead time for switching the static switch out of synchronism
shall be specified as a function of X/R variable of the system.
A.2.12.1.2 Perform the test in each phase and in all balanced phases, with 100 % of rated active load,
and repeat with non-linear loads.
44
-PUBLIC-
a) 1st step: with all modules in parallel, observe if the current is unbalanced;
b) 2nd step: turn off 1 or more modules (preferably the master, as the case may be) and
observe if the current is divided among the others;
c) 3rd step: return the module to operation, and observe if the division returned to the
previous condition.
NOTE Request the maximum values of unbalance in worst conditions with linear and non-linear
load.
With a oscillograph, record the currents and voltages in all modules each time a module is turned off
and on.
The test shall be performed with rated active load applied to the UPS, with stabilized internal
temperature and disconnected battery. In three-phase UPS, the phases shall operate with 100 %
unbalanced loads.
A.2.13.3.1 The output voltage ripple of the rectified shall not exceed effective 1 % with
disconnected battery.
A.2.13.3.2 The current ripple shall not exceed 5 % with connected battery of same internal
impedance value of the original equipment for the specified capacity.

The temperature rise test of the UPS shall be performed in the most critical condition to the
equipment. The UPS-CC to be tested shall have its temperature stabilized. AC input for the rectifier
shall be in the minimum value within the admissible range of normal operation of the rectifier. The
DC busbar voltage shall be in the minimum operating limit of inverter (final discharge voltage of
each rectifier element times the number of elements). The test shall be performed with linear rated
load applied to the UPS.
The output voltage shall remain within the admissible range of normal operation, as specified.
Temperature conditions of UPS cabinets shall be monitored. All critical components of UPS (inverter
bridge, transformers, power supply electrolytic capacitors, rectifier bridge, etc.) shall be monitored.
The internal temperature rise of electronic components, added to the ambient temperature of
40 °C, shall not exceed 80 % of its industrial line tolerance range used by the manufacturer.
The static switch shall not have any damage, nor equipment shutdown due to overheating.
46
-PUBLIC-
Storage and operating tests under adverse weather conditions (cold, moist heat, dry heat, etc.) shall
be performed as per IEC 62040-3.
Before the test, the electrical characteristics of UPS shall be checked. During the test performance,
the UPS shall not be operating. The UPS shall be subjected to two shock pulses of half sine of 15 g,
with nominal duration of 11 ms, in the three plans. The test method indicated in IEC 60068-2-27 shall
be followed. No measurement shall be done during test.
Perform new electrical measurements as per IEC 62040-3. Check for physical damage and distortion
of component parts.
A.2.18.3 Vibration and Shock Test of Connectors (IEC 60068-2-6 and 60068-2-27)
All connectors used in all equipment items comprising the power supply critical systems shall
comply with the tests, in accordance with IEC 60068-2-6 for sinusoidal vibration test, and with IEC
60068-2-27 for shock test. The equipment manufacturer shall supply the test report of used
connectors. When the report is issued by a third-party laboratory, this shall be registered in the
official bodies of the country of origin. If the report is issued by the manufacturer itself,
PETROBRAS shall perform an initial inspection to authorize the supplying of the given connectors.
Parameters for the tests above are described on Tables A.2 and A.3.

After performing the tests, the contact resistance shall be under 150 % of the resistance measured
before testing. There shall be no opening of contacts above 1 μs.
A.2.19.1.1 Measurements shall be performed in normal and stored energy operation modes, and
values shall be determined in acoustic decibels (dBA) 1 meter far from the equipment. The
measurement shall be done with normal input voltage and rated linear load in permanent condition.
A.2.19.1.2 In equipment items with automatic fans, the fans shall be turned on. Sound alarms shall
not be considered in measurement. The measurement method specified in ISO 7779 shall be
used, considering the equipment use position.
