The result of a successful review of test results is the Certificate of Completion of Commissioning and an issuance of the Preliminary Acceptance Certificate (PAC). Commissioning shall be accomplished in order to determine compliance against the SWEP Phase 2A Wave Power Station Requirement Specification. In accordance with this specification, requirements require testing, demonstration, inspection, or analysis for determination of compliance. When the compliance phase begins, the Contractor will conduct testing and demonstrations for requirements that require these determination methods. Evidence of compliance for requirements requiring inspection or analysis will be reviewed in the Test Results stage, as discussed below. 3.2 TEST PLANNING The Contractor shall plan for the verification of requirements requiring testing or demonstration in the Commissioning Test Plan. The Commissioning Test Plan shall document, in sufficient detail, the conduct of the testing and shall include Test Procedures for those tests that require them. Procedures generated shall include: 1) Specific Descriptions of a) Test Setup b) Instrumentation c) Test Data to be extracted d) Pass/Fail Requirements e) Personnel Requirments f) Anticipated duration of the test g) Requirements flow 2) Clear directions for execution of the test 3) Ability to repeat test and duplicate test results 4) Test Data Sheets for test results recording and witness signatures 3.3 TEST EXECUTION Once the Commissioning Test Plan is completed and the [**], the Contractor may begin the [**]. The testing shall follow the test plan and may be witnessed by the Client, in accordance with the terms of the EPC agreement. All test results shall be recorded and signed by the witnessing parties. 3.4 TEST RESULTS Once the testing is completed, a Test Report shall be generated. The test report shall include the following information: 1) Summary of Testing 2) Analysis of Results 3) Any Corrective Actions required 4) Requests for Deviations of requirements, if required 5) Copies of all test data sheets 6) Analysis, or reference to analysis documents 7) Inspection reports, or reference to inspection documents 8) Summary compliance matrix 3.5 REVIEW OF RESULTS Once the Test Report is generated and supplied to the Client, a review of the results will take place. This review will result ina signed copy of the Certificate of Completion of Commissioning and a Preliminary Acceptance Certificate, or an action plan to meet these milestones. 3.6 TESTS TO BE INCLUDED [**] ANNEX XI LIST OF SUBCONTRACTORS ANNEX XI LIST OF POTENTIAL SUBCONTRACTORS SUBCONTRACTOR LOCATION COMPONENTS - ------------- -------- ---------------------------------------------------- [**] [**] Steel Fabrication [**] [**] Steel Fabrication [**] [**] Steel Fabrication [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] Generators [**] [**] Generators [**] [**] Generators [**] [**] Mooring System [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] Mooring components [**] [**] Mooring components [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] Submarine Cable [**] [**] Submarine Cable [**] [**] Submarine Cable [**] [**] Submarine Cable [**] [**] Submarine Cable [**] [**] Submarine Cable [**] [**] Connectors [**] [**] Cable & Fibre Optic Connectors [**] [**] Connectors [**] [**] Transformer/Switchgear [**] [**] Transformer/Switchgear [**] [**] Subsea Transformer/Switchgear [**] [**] Subsea Equipment [**] [**] Subsea Equipment [**] [**] Subsea Equipment [**] [**] Transformer/Switchgear [**] [**] Transformer/Switchgear [**] [**] Transformer/Switchgear [**] [**] Transformer/Switchgear [**] [**] Power electronics [**] [**] Power system [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] Cable system design, cable, connectors, installation [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] [**] Design Naval Vessels

[**] 2. [**] 3. [**] PROTECTION DESCRIPTION [**] [**] the [**] in the event that the [**] is damaged or develops an internal fault. Relay operation will [**] the [**] and [**] from the [**] as well as [**] the relay will not operate. [**] [**] provides [**] for the [**]. As indicated on the drawing, [**] have [**] adding to the overall protection scheme. The [**] relay offers [**]. The relay [**] on [**] when the [**], preventing [**]. Since the relay is of a [**] it will be capable of providing [**] and [**] on the [**] of the [**]. Relay will also provide [**] for the [**]. [**] [**] are shown in this [**] is an [**] relay, an [**] that operates when the [**] and a [**]. The [**] relay is designed to [**] in the event that the [**] that would be detrimental to the [**] and could potentially cause [**] from the [**]. Conversely the [**] would [**] from the [**] in the event that the [**] in the system [**]. The [**] relay is placed into the system to [**]. This is required in the event that the [**]. The possibility exists that there may be [**]. The [**] needs the utility as a means for [**] and the [**] as long as the utility is [**]. Should the [**] become [**] from the [**], the [**] supplied by the [**] will not have a [**] and will not [**]. The [**] relay provides a simple and effective method to [**] and [**] from the utility. The [**] is set to [**]. Since this should not occur under normal conditions, [**]. [**] Since the electrical equipment will be located in a submersible enclosure, it is necessary to [**] relaying provides a high speed method to detect a [**]. The [**] overlaps the [**] providing addition protection. As previously stated, the [**] will [**] on [**] giving additional reliability for the system. [**] Each [**] located in the submersible enclosure is [**]. Each [**] is equipped with a [**] will be [**] and also [**]. [**] The [**]. The [**] will convert the [**]. The [**] is then converted to [**] that will be [**]. The [**] has [**]. Additionally the [**] ahead of the [**] will also act to as a [**].
