Load Test
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Edit as required, depending upon whether a
temporary or permanent load bank is to be provided
and on the type of UPS system. This paragraph may
be deleted for small UPS systems.
**************************************************************************
The installed system shall be load tested for a continuous 24 hour period
by means of resistive load banks. The system shall be continuously tested
at 1/2 load for 8 hours, 3/4 load for 8 hours and full load for 8 hours.
[Load banks will be available onsite and shall be connected to UPS
equipment by the Contractor.] [The equipment manufacturer shall provide
resistive load banks of total kW load of equipment to facilitate startup
under load conditions, and to conduct load tests described above.]
Instrument readings shall be recorded every half hour for the following:
a.
Input voltage (all three phases, for each module).
b.
Input current (all three phases, for each module).
