14.0 ADDITIONAL REMARKS

(a) Wiring checks were carried out on the panels and confirmed okay.
(b) All fuses and MCBS in the panels were checked okay.
(c) 110VDC and 230VAC were supplied to the panels to confirm the indications and alarms
on the panels e.g spring charging, breaker off etc. The motor was also spring charging
electrically.
(d) Close and open operation of the breaker was carried out both electrically and
mechanically.
(e) The protection relays on all the circuits checked okay.

15.0 CONCLUSION:

The results of all various tests carried out on the equipment stated therein, are clearly in
conformity with the acceptable international standards and therefore recommend for the
tie-in of the substation to the national grid.

THANK YOU.
