Commissioning checklist

commissioning work.
• Ensure that you have all the needed station drawings such as single line and wiring
diagrams.

version you test.
• Ensure that your setting software and connectivity packages work with the protection
relay version you test.
• Find out if you need any additional software.

settings and logic should be well documented.
• Inspect the settings to ensure that they are correct.

• Find out who to contact if you have trouble and make sure you have a means to contact
them.
