The fash protection boundary will be calculated in ocordance with NFPA TOE. ‘The reflash incident energy isto he calculated using the equations in NFPA 70E. a Page) ATs-20037, INSPECTION AND TEST PROCEDURES i: 7.1 Switchgear and Switchboard Assemblies Tae pee ene py AR RD Senet es ee, ee one eee ee a aE ire ee A enema ee Siero cane aioe oe 4.

Inspect for physical damage, cracked insulation, broken leads, fightness of connections, defective wiring, and overall general condition, e 2. Verify that primary and sevondary fuse or circuit breakers raticgs match drawings, i 3. Verify comect functioning of drawout disconnecting and grounding contacts and imerlocks, 2. Hlectrical Tests : 1. Perform eletial tests on instrument transformers in secordance with Section 7.10, 2. Perform ground-resistance ests in accordance with Setion 7.13. 3. Perform resistance measurements through bolted electrical connections with a low-resistance e ‘obmmeter, if applicable, in accordance with Section 7.1. 4. Perform insulation-resstance tests on cach bus section, pase-tosphase and phase-o-ground, for one minute in accordance with Table 100.1.” 5, Perform an overpotenta test on each bus section, each phase to ground with phases not under {est grounded, in accordance with manufacturer's published data. If manufacturer has 20 j recommendation for this teat, it shall be in accordance with Table 10¢.2. The tet voltage shall, be applied for one minute 6. Perform insulation-esstance tests on coatrol wiring with respec to ground. Applied potential Shall be $00 vots de for 300 volt ated cable and 1000 vols de fo 600 volt rated eable.
