1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This Black Building IST Testing Method Statement has been prepared by AE ARMA-ELEKTROPANC for
the MEP works undertaken by BAKU BOULEVARD HOTEL PROJECT.

This Method Statement has been prepared to record the operation, performance and integration of the
installed fire life safety systems during an emergency or electrical failure / part failure scenario.

The testing will consist of a number of different subsequent tests under various power configurations. The
testing that will be carried out ensures that the generator backed systems function correctly during a power
failure, and also that all the various systems restart after mains power restoration without going into alarm
or fault mode.

Once a test is completed, the attached sample test sheet can be filled out with the test data gathered from
the logs exported.

2. TEST PREREQUISITES

The Contractor’s T&C for Mechanical/Electrical Group has the overall responsibility for the implementation
of this Method Statement.

The Contractor’s T&C MEP Coordinator will ensure that the resources are available to carry out the works
as per approved drawings, method of statement, and work as scheduled.

The Contractor’s Site Engineer/Supervisor is responsible to ensure that the work has been carried out as
per approved drawings, method statements and assist inspection.

The Contractor’s commissioning technician/s is responsible to ensure that they are abiding the method of
statement to achieve the required data as per equipment schedule and project specification.

The Contractor Safety Officer will assist in all issues related to the HSE.

All of the system documentation and record drawings shall be available for reference, additionally there
should be back up of the latest system configurations of all fire panels.

3. TEST INFORMATION

3.1 OVERVIEW

The information provided in the appendix is a guide to the required state of all of the building assets during
the following different conditions simulated for this test, as listed below:

TEST 1

Test 1.a – Building Normal – All Systems Healthy

TEST 2

Test 2.a – MV Power Failure

Test 2.b – MV Off – Emergency Lighting Test During 20 Seconds Synchronisation

Test 2.c – Two Generator Sets Take Over

Test 2.d – One Generator Run Auto On Load

TEST 3

Test 3.a – UPS Online

TEST 4

Test 4.a – Random Cause & Effect Tests on Generator Power

TEST 5

Test 5.a – MV Power Restored – Building Normal

3.2 TEST PROCEDURE

TEST 1

Make sure all systems are healthy with zero fault/warning/alarm.

TEST 2

Simulate a power failure from MV.

Until the generator kicks off, check the emergency lighting on escape routes during 20 seconds
synchronisation.

After 20 seconds complete, verify that two generator sets take over the power.

Verify that only one generator runs according to low load demand.

TEST 3

Verify that UPS is online and not on bypass.

TEST 4

Perform random Cause & Effect tests in the building while still on generator power. Verify that fire alarm
system and all integrated systems perform as per the latest Cause & Effect Matrix:

1. Activate a flow switch in basement fire detection / evacuation zone

 Alarm on Fire Alarm panel
 All strobes and sounders in zone activate
 HVAC serving zone stops
 Access Control on doors releases
 Solenoid valves close
 Smoke extract and car park ventilation fans start
 Fire pumps start

2. Activate a manual call point in ground floor fire detection / evacuation zones
 Alarm on Fire Alarm panel
 All strobes and sounders in zone activate
 HVAC serving zone stops
 Access Control on doors releases
 Solenoid valve closes
 Background music stops
 Lighting control activates
 Door openers activate
 Smoke extract fans start

3. Activate a smoke detector in selected guestroom level

 Alarm on Fire Alarm panel
 All strobes and sounders in zone activate
 HVAC serving zone stops
 Access Control on doors releases

TEST 5

Restore MV. Verify that MV takes over the power. Verify that all systems are healthy and building is back
in normal condition.

4. INSTRUMENTATION

 Radio Communication
 Smoke Detector Tester Pole
 Smoke Test Sprays (sufficient amount of cans)
 Heat Detector Tester Pole
 Key for Manual Call Points
