ASSESSAMNT OF CLIENT FACILITY

During the investigation of a client facility the following aspects of the manufacturer's

testing outfit will be reviewed:

1. Quality System - (ISO 9001 or 9002 registered or similar quality assurance

program in place)

2. Qualified Personnel - (Witness proficiency of each lab techniciao/technical

reviewer)

3. Lab Environment - (Stable, draft free environment at 10-40°C)

4. Measurement/Instnunentation Accuracy:

General - Indicating instrumentation shall be calibrated to limit errors to no

greater than the specified value.

a. Voltage, Current, and Power: +/- 0.29/o of full scale

h. Instrumentation Transformers: <= 0.3%

c. Speed: +/- 1 RPM of the measured value

d. Torque: +/- 0.2% of full scale

NOTE: If the measurement instruments and instrumentation transformers in

Items a and b are calibrated as a system, the accuracy shall be +/- 0,2% of full

scale.

5. Power Supply:

a. Phase Voltage Balance: 0.5 % of specified value

b. Average Frequency : +/- 10% of specified value

c. Average Frequency Stability : <= 0.33%

d. Waveform Deviation Factor: <^= 10%

6. Calibration - (All equipment used must be annually calibrated by a body that

can provide traceability to national standard of measurement)

7. Standards - Per DOE test procedure 10 CFR Part 431.23 dated October 5,

1999 or CSA C390-93, Energy Efficiency Test Methods for Three-Phase

Induction Motors,

8. Client Facility Assessment Form - See Appendix C for example.

System in place to schedule calibration of M&TE_

Equipment calibrated periodically. Calibration must be at least annually

unless:

1, i'vt&TE manufacturer recommends a different interval,

2, Statistical calibration history study justifies a different interval,

3. Calibrated bgfare each use.

Calibrations traceable to nationally or internationally recognized standard

of measurement (e.g., NIST).

Maintains the following M&TE records:

1. Instruction and maintenance manuals (unless the M&TE is simple and

straight forward to use and maintain).

2. Full identification of the M&TE and records of its acquisition.

a. History of damage, malfunction. maintenance and repair.

4. Calibration certificates.
