Factory and site acceptance testing
Testing the proper IED operation is carried out at different occasions, for example:
•
Acceptance testing
•
Commissioning testing
•
Maintenance testing
This manual describes the workflow and the steps to carry out the commissioning testing.
Factory acceptance testing (FAT) is typically done to verify that the IED and configuration
meets the requirements by the utility or industry. This test is the most complex and in depth,
as it is done to familiarize the user to a new protection or to verify a new configuration. The
complexity of this testing depends on several factors.
•
New IED type
•
New configuration
•
Pre-configured
•
Modified existing configuration
Site acceptance testing (SAT or commissioning testing) is typically done to verify that the new
installed IED is correctly set and connected to the power system. SAT requires that the
acceptance testing has been performed and that the application configuration is verified.
Maintenance testing is a periodical verification that the IED is healthy and has correct settings
depending on changes in the power system. There are also other types of maintenance
testing.

•
Single line diagram
•
Protection block diagram
•
Circuit diagram
•
Setting list and configuration
•
RJ-45 Ethernet cable (CAT 5)
•

used
•
Administration rights on the PC to set up IP addresses
