The systems are provided to the customer in a special packing unit that properly protects it during
transportation, provided it is done under normal conditions.
Immediately after receiving the equipment, the customer should check if there is any evidence of the system
having suffered damage during transportation. If injury or damage resulting from rough handling is evident,
file a damage claim at once with the Transportation Company and promptly notify the factory.
Reasonable care should be exercised in unpacking the relay in order not to lose the accessories provided in
the box.
If the equipment is not going to be installed immediately, it is convenient to store it in its original packing, in a
place free from moisture and dust.
It is important to check that the inscription on the nameplate matches the data in the order.
6.1. ACCEPTANCE TESTS AND EQUIPMENT CALIBRATION
It is recommended, once the equipment is received, that a visual inspection and the tests given below be
performed to make sure that the relay has not suffered any damage in transportation and the factory
calibration has not been altered.
In the description of each test instructions for the calibration of every measuring unit are included. The units
must only be readjusted if the values measured are beyond the indicated tolerance limits.
The tests described in chapter 12, can be carried out as installation or acceptance tests, depending on the
criteria of the user. Since most users have different procedures for installation and acceptance tests, this
section explains all the tests that can be performed on the systems.
