Completion test of power equipment
The completion test of power equipment refers to a series of tests conducted to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the equipment after the construction of the power system is completed to verify whether the performance and safety of the equipment meet relevant standards.
Specifically, the purpose of the completion test of power equipment is:
- Confirm the safety of the device:Through tests, verify whether the insulation properties and electrical properties of the equipment meet the safety requirements to prevent failures or accidents during the operation of the equipment.
- Confirm the reliability of the equipment:Testing can help test the performance and stability of the equipment, ensure that the equipment can work normally during operation, and meet the electricity demand
- Confirm the quality of the equipment:Testing can help test the manufacturing quality and installation quality of equipment to ensure that the quality of equipment meets the requirements of relevant standards
Common completion test projects for power equipment include:
- Insulation test:Including withstand voltage test, withstand voltage test, insulation impedance test, etc., used to test the insulation performance of equipment
- Electrical test:Including short circuit testing, grounding testing, resistance testing, etc., used to verify the electrical performance of equipment
- Protection device test:Including relay testing, protection function testing, etc., used to verify the performance of the protection device
- Other tests:Including partial discharge test, temperature rise test, etc., used to test the performance of the equipment
The process of completing the test is generally as follows:
- Planning and preparation:According to relevant standards and regulations, formulate test plans and prepare test equipment and tools
- Test execution:Conduct relevant tests in accordance with the test plan and record the test results
- Result analysis:Analyze the test results to determine whether the equipment meets the requirements
- Reporting and archiving:Write a test report and file the test results
In Taiwan, the completion test of electric power equipment is the responsibility of the Taiwan Electric power inspection department or an inspection agency recognized by it. It is also allowed to entrust the relevant competent authority of the central government or an inspection agency recognized by it, or the electrical equipment inspection and maintenance industry to handle it. The relevant test benchmarks are based on Article 15 of the "User Electrical Equipment Inspection Measures".The provisions of the article shall be handled.
It should be noted that, The completion test is an important link after the construction of the power system is completed, and it plays an important role in ensuring the safety of electricity consumption and the reliable operation of the power system.
