Fire Service Installation
1. Introduction

The procedures stated in this Testing and Commissioning (T&C) Procedure

cover the activities in preliminary tests and inspections, functional performance
tests and the commissioning of newly completed installations and existing ones
after major alteration. They are so compiled to facilitate the work of Project
Building Services Engineer (PBSE) and Project Building Services Inspector
(PBSI), who are appointed as the Supervising Officer’s Representatives, in the
following aspects with respect to testing and commissioning:-

(a) to vet and approve the T&C procedures proposed and submitted by the
contractor for Fire Service Installation (FS Contractor);

(b) to witness those T&C procedures as specified; and

(c) to accept the T&C certificates and other supporting data.

The FS Contractor shall carry out the T&C works as detailed in this T&C
Procedure. Supplementary T&C plans may be proposed by the FS Contractor as
appropriate and agreed by PBSE, e.g. for special equipment supplied and/or
installed by the FS Contractor.

The administrative requirements for T&C works are in general as specified in the
General Specification for Fire Service Installation 2017 Edition and all current
corrigenda/amendments thereto published before the date of first tender
invitation for the Contract issued by the ArchSD (the General Specification).

All words and expressions shall have the meaning as assigned to them under the
General Specification unless otherwise specified herein.

2. Objectives of the Testing and Commissioning Works

The objectives of the T&C works are:-

(a) to verify the proper functioning of the equipment/system after installation;

(b) to verify that the performance of the installed equipment/systems meet with
the specified design intent and statutory requirements, if any, through a
series of tests and adjustments; and

(c) to capture and record performance data of the whole installation as the
baseline for future operation and maintenance.

For the avoidance of doubt, depending on the specific demands of individual

installation, the PBSE may require additional or substitute T&C works in regard
to any elements in the Installations other than those indicated in this T&C
Procedure.

subsidiary legislation, including but not limited to Construction Sites
(Safety) Regulations; and

(e) Electricity supply rules of the relevant power supply companies.

3.2 Functional Performance Tests

The purpose of functional performance tests is to demonstrate that the

Installations can meet the functional and performance requirements as
specified in the Specification. Functional performance tests should
proceed from the testing of individual components to the testing of
different systems in the Installations.

The FS Contractor may have to make temporary modifications as the tests

proceed. The specific tests required and the order of tests will vary
depending on the type and size of systems, number of systems, sequence of
construction, interface with other installations, relationship with the
building elements and other specific requirements as indicated in the
Specification. The testing of systems may have to be carried out in stages
depending on the progress of work or as proposed by the FS Contractor.

Part of the tests may be required to be carried out in suppliers’ premises in

accordance with the provisions in the Specification.

Any performance deficiencies revealed during the functional performance

tests must be evaluated to determine the cause. After completion of the
necessary corrective measures, the FS Contractor shall repeat the tests.
