Testing and Commissioning of UPS System Method Statement

The document outlines the procedure for testing and commissioning an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system. It describes the purpose of the UPS to provide backup power for critical systems for 30 minutes during a power outage. The procedure defines the precommissioning and commissioning steps to ensure the UPS is installed correctly and functioning properly. This includes checks of the wiring, settings, components, and simulated power failures to test the UPS provides backup power as intended.

Webmaster

The UPS System located normally in the LV rooms supports critical telephone & data
room sockets, central equipment in the BMS, Server and security rooms etc. for a period
of 30 minutes until power is restored. The UPS system provides continuous, regulated
AC power to the loads under normal and abnormal conditions, including loss of the
utility AC power.

The purpose of this procedure is to define the step by step method to implement the
correct practices for the precommissioning & commissioning of “UPS System”through
the guidelines contained herein so as to ensure that the job execution complies with the
project requirements and serves the intended function to satisfactory level.

Required Tools

Portable Hand tools


Step Ladder
Multimeter
Megger

Precommissioning Procedure for UPS System


1. Ensure that the UPS System installation is complete and mechanical completion is
approved & all comments on the installation are incorporated.
2. Ensure that no damage has occurred between mechanical completion &
precommissioning.
3. Replace damaged components, if any
4. Ensure the installation is in line with the approved shop drawings, local authority
codes & manufacturer’s recommendations.
5. Verify the following as regards to wiring & installation:
– Check ground connection
– Check tightness of power parts
– Check the setting of electronic board
– Check all power fuses for continuity
– Check all switches / breakers are in open position
– Check the system is interfaced with the BMS

Commissioning Procedure for UPS System

1. Ensure that all the precommissioning checks are carried out successfully.
2. Ensure that the customer support representative from the
equipment manufacturer is present to check & start the UPS units.

Pre-Power checks:
– Verify that all UPS isolators & battery breaker are open
– Verify that correct voltage (415 VAC) is selected on power supply transformers T2 &
T3.
– Check & verify the UPS voltage output.
– Verify that control switches (Q1,Q2 & Q3) on UPS logic board are open.

Rectifier Section
– Apply mains voltage to input & record.
– Close input isolator
– Set Q3 on UPS logic board to ON position
– Check the rectifier output & record VDC (if necessary adjust by R21 on rectifier logic
board)
– Check battery voltage & polarity
– Check battery breaker

Inverter Section

– Set the inverter switch Q2 on UPS logic board to ON position, the inverter will ramp-
up to nominal voltage.
– Record the output voltage & frequency Output switch section
– Close by-pass isolator
– Set Q1 on UPS logic board to ON position
– Close output isolator
– Measure & record the output voltage

UPS function test

2/3
1. Simulate a power black-out by switching off the input isolator, the inverter will
run on batteries & following messages will be displayed: ‘Battery on load’
2. Close the input isolator
3. Turn off the inverter, the load will be transferred to by-pass.
4. Turn ON the inverter & verify that the load will be transferred automatically to the
inverter.
5. Ensure that proper cooling is taking place

Alarms Test

The following alarms shall be checked


Inverter OFF / load on by pass
Battery CB open
Output switch open
By-pass switch open
Rectifier OFF
UPS on maintenance by-pass

Check & verify the mimic diagram functions finally.
