1. SCOPE
This Method Statement has been prepared by AE ARMA-ELEKTROPANC and ID TURKIYE for the MEP
works undertaken by BAKU BOULEVARD HOTEL PROJECT for Test & Commissioning of Induction Loop
System.
Every installation shall, during erection and on completion before being put into service, be inspected and
tested to verify, so far as is reasonably practicable, that the requirements of the Regulations have been
met.
The verification shall include comparison of the results with relevant criteria to confirm that the requirements
of the Regulations have been met.
Precautions shall be taken to avoid danger to persons and to avoid damage to property and installed
equipment during inspection and testing.
This Method Statement has been prepared to establish a uniform and systematic procedure to be
implemented for Test & Commissioning of Induction Loop System.
2. RESPONSIBILITIES
The Contractor’s T&C for 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 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.
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.
3. EXECUTION OF WORK
IEC 60118-4
1. For long time listening it is recommended that the background noise level is below -47dB(A)
2. If the background noise level is higher than -32dB(A), the owner of the premises should be informed and
given some suggestions how to accomplish a lower background noise level
3. For short time announcements, background noise levels of up to -22dBA, can be accepted

3.2. FIELD STRENGTH VARIATION/OVERSPILL
IEC 60118-4
Stated field strength variation is ±3dB within the listening volume.
IEC 60118-4
Specified frequency variation is ±3dB for 100Hz and 5kHz relative to 1kHz (0dB)
IEC 60118-4
Accepted variation is ±3dB re 400mA/m (0dB) through the whole listening volume.
Connect the actual signal source/s, preferably speech, and adjust the input level according to the
instructions of the amplifier’s manual.
If a microphone is used, speak normally into the microphone. If the ITU or HA synthesized speech signals
are preferred, use the audio sources available on site (CD player or audio system).
Verify that the highest peak is 400mA/m (0dB). As real signals like speech fluctuate, several measurements
have to be performed, usually for 20-30 seconds. The time it will take before an accurate peak value is
reached, is depending on the evenness of the program signal (crest factor).
Document the highest peak value into the certificate.

4. HEALTH, SAFETY & ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
ARMA will operate a strict safety policy. ARMA recognizes the importance of safety on site and will strictly
adhere to the safety requirements for working in.
A team of experienced and well qualified safety officers will be assigned to implement and control the Health
Safety & Environment Plan on site.

7. STAFFING
During tests, the personnel involved could be exposed to risks of electrocution or other dangers related
with live working. All personnel will have valid Site Induction and Supervisor signed Permit to Work. Permit
to work or operate the systems will be on place before starting the work.

A. Background noise measurement Pass/Fail Notes
Disconnect the loop driver and document the background noise levels.
Apply the signal (1kHz_pulse.wav). Using a pulsed sine wave signal gives a more stable result
without the risk of the driver's AGC reducing the level.
