16/20 mva x-former_spec & gtp_ajgar_design2 11
 All items shall be subjected to routine tests in accordance with the relevant latest version of IEC, BS &
BDS standards at the manufacturers works and shall include, but not be limited to, an operational test.
7.29 TECHNICAL O RIENTATION AND Q UALITY TEST WITNESS :
The Purchaser shall have the right to inspect/test the goods/materials to confirm their conformity to the
specification. The purchaser shall be entitled at all reasonable time during manufacture to inspect,
examine and test of goods/materials at the manufacturers’ premises, workmanship and performance.
The following test (not limited to) shall be carried out as per latest version of IEC or equivalent standard
unless otherwise mentioned at the manufacturer premises or other places where the test facilities are available:-
Acceptance Tests:-
1. Measurement of turn ratio test;
2. Vector group test;
3. Measurement of winding resistance;
4. Measurement of insulation resistance;
5. Measurement of no load loss & no-load current;
6. Measurement of impedance voltage & load loss;
7. Dielectric withstands Tests;
8. Transformer oil test;
9. Temperature rise test.

The purchaser can carryout the testing of any no. of transformers during Quality Test Witness. But, the
testing of transformers during Quality Test Witness will not be less than 10% at random basisofthe
transformer ready for inspection but in any case it will not be less than 3 nos. The manufacturer will
provide all arrangements for the testing of transformers desired by the purchaser in his factory.

The Supplier shall, after consulting the purchaser, give the Purchaser reasonable notice in writing of the
date on and the place at which any material or equipment will be ready for testing as provided in the
contract and unless the purchaser shall attend at the place so named on date, which the supplier has
stated in his notice, the supplier may proceed with the tests, which shall be deemed to have been made in
the purchaser’s presence, and shall forth with forward to the purchaser duly certified copies of test
readings.

When the purchaser intends to attend the test he shall promptly inform the supplier accordingly in writing,
so that he can take action. The purchaser shall give the supplier timely notice in writing of his intention to
attend the test.

Where the supplier provides for tests on the premises of the supplier or of any manufacturer of the
supplier, except where otherwise specified, shall provide free of charge such assistance, labor, materials,
electricity, fuel, stores, apparatus and instruments as may be requisite and as may be reasonably
demanded to carry out such test efficiently. These test shall be performed as per relevant IEC/BS
Standard or equivalent and only routine tests as agreed upon, will be performed.

As and when the purchaser is satisfied that any materials/equipment shall have passes the tests referred
to in this clause, purchaser shall notify the contractor in writing to that effect.

Should any inspected/tested goods fail to conform to the specification, the Purchaser shall have the right
to reject any of the item or complete batch if necessary. In that case Supplier have to replace the
Equipment and to make good of them without any financial involvement to the Purchaser. In case any of
the Equipment found not conforming with the specification at the time of post landing Inspection, the
supplier will in no way be relieved from the responsibility of replacing them on making them good at their
own cost, despite the Equipment were found good at the time of Factory Acceptance Test. Nothing in this
clause shall in any way release the supplier from any warranty or other obligations under the contract.
BPDB’s Inspection Team of at least 03(Three) Engineers shall have to conduct Technical Orientation
and Quality Test Witness at the manufacturer’s factory premises. The cost incurred for this purpose shall
be borne by the contractor and shall be deemed the cost in this regard is included in the offered price.

16/20 mva x-former_spec & gtp_ajgar_design2 12

 The cost of Air Tickets (both way) from Bangladesh to Manufacturer’s Country (place of Technical
Orientation and Quality Test Witness), Hotel Accommodation etc. will be borne by the contractor. Other
than this the contractor will pay a standard amount of pocket money per day (Excluding journey period).
The period for this purpose is more or less 07 (Seven) days. All the cost of this purpose shall be deemed
is included in the offered price.
No goods shall be packed, prepared for shipment/delivery unless it has been approved and written
instruction have been received by the Purchaser.

7.30 POST LANDING INSPECTION:

Post landing inspection shall be done immediately after arrival of the goods/materials at the designated
store of BPDB; the Engineer & representative from consignee shall conduct Post Landing Inspection in
presence of the representative of Supplier. The program of such inspection shall be intimated to the
representative of Supplier by BPDB upon arrival of the materials at BPDB store of the Inspector(s) to be
selected for test witnessing. Any defect or damage have been found at post-delivery inspection, the
defective or damaged panels/ materials/ goods to be repaired/ replaced by the Bidder/ supplier at his own
cost.
