Field Service Commissioning and Recertification

Isolated Power Panel Commissioning & Recertification

NFPA 99 articles 6.3.2, 6.3.3, and 6.3.4 detail various testing requirements for all newly installed Isolated Power Systems to be thoroughly tested prior to first use. On-site Start-up Hospital Isolated Power Panel Commissioning and Line Isolation Monitor (LIM) testing by a PG LifeLink factory trained Field Service Technician is included with equipment for all new installations. Commissioning available for competitive brands.

Hospital Isolated Power Panel Commissioning assures facility owners and design engineers that all construction materials and workmanship comply with code requirements for new installations. Successful commissioning validates the factory warranty on the Isolated Power System.

Per article 6.3.4.1.5, testing must also be performed using external simulated faults after any “repair or renovation” to the system. PG LifeLink Technicians can provide recertification testing for any brand of Isolated Power equipment. Recertification completed by PG Lifelink of renovated systems documents compliance with NFPA code requirements.
