Inspection & Testing

Derek Eccles

I am a project manager, constructing new waste water treatment works, for a water company. The contractor building the new works has provided a program which has 4 months between  part 1 (dead testing) and part 2 (live testing) of the NICIEC certification. In between these dates, the contractor will test and commission of the plant and equipment e.g. pumps, actuated valves, instrumentation, screens etc.

Would it be correct to say, this does not comply with the wiring regulations ?

    I would agree re. H&S. There will be at least 6 different sub-contractors, commissioning their own plant after dead testing. I would guess the main contractor will not know the personnel involved, their qualifications and experience. 

    I dont know why the contractor wants to leave 4 months between the tests. I dont believe we have any complex systems that would require commissioning before live testing.

    I was curious to know if anyone else had similar issues.
