instruments calibrated or tested. For instruments calibrated by
the manufacturer on a routine basis, in lieu of third party
calibration, include the following:
(a) Maintain up-to-date instrument calibration instructions and
procedures for each test instrument.
(b) Identify the third party/laboratory calibrated instrument to
verify that calibrating standard is met.

Integral Assembly Test
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Coordinate with paragraph "Factory Test
Reports" prior to use of option requiring testing of
integral assemblies.
**************************************************************************
Switchgear and substation transformer shall be tested as an integral
assembly at the transformer manufacturer's test facility. Once acceptance
of test results is received, ship switchgear and substation.
