SECTION 17: ELECTRICAL COMMISSIONING 17.1 GENERAL 17.1.1 Functional description A specialist team is to be engaged to carry out the commissioning of the electrical services. This team may consist of the contractors employees, if their experience and aptitude is approved. The commissioning of the electrical systems is a critical stage and the specialist team need to be involved with the project from an early stage. This should be approximately 1 month prior to the availability of permament electrical power to the site. A fully commissioned and documented system is re uired at the end of the project, and this section of the specification describes the minimum activities re uired. 17.1.!
