Use the Functional Performance Test Checklists from the approved Final Commissioning Plan to guide the Functional Performance Tests.
Functional Performance Tests must be performed for each item of equipment and each system required to be commissioned and verify all sensor calibrations, control responses, safeties, interlocks, operating modes, sequences of operation, capacities, lighting levels, and all other performance requirements comply with construction contract regardless of the specific items listed within the Functional Performance Test Checklists. Testing must progress from equipment or components to subsystems to systems to interlocks and connections between systems. The order of components and systems to be tested must be determined by the Technical Commissioning Specialists.
3.3.4.2 Prior to Testing

3.3.4.3 Sample Strategy
Prepare and complete a Functional Performance Test Checklist for each item of equipment or system to be tested.
For sample sizes less than 100 percent for all similar equipment, the Government will select the specific equipment or system to be tested during testing.
Equipment Identifier Sample Size (Percent) Building Automation System 100 Air Handling Units (RLT) 100 Fans (Exhaust) 20 Variable and Constant Air Volume Terminals (LAA / LAZ)
Heat Exchangers 100 Pumps 100 Radiators 20 Water Heater (Instantaneous) 20
Hygiene Flushing Valves 20 Emergency Power Systems 100 Lighting Controls 100 Energy and Water Meters 100
3.3.4.4 Tests
Perform Functional Performance Tests.
Provide all necessary materials and system modifications to produce the necessary flows, pressures, temperatures, and other conditions necessary to execute the test according to the specified conditions. At completion of the test, return the affected building equipment and systems to their pre-test condition.
Perform each test under conditions that simulate actual conditions as close as is practically possible.
Develop and implement means of artificial loading to demonstrate, to a reasonable level of confidence, the ability of the HVAC systems to handle peak seasonal loads.
3.3.4.4.1 Simulating Conditions
Over-writing control input values through the controls system is not acceptable, unless approved by the Contracting Officer's Representative.
Identify proposed exceptions in a protocol submitted to the Contracting Officer's Representative for approval. Before simulating conditions, overwriting values (if approved), or changing set-points, calibrate all sensors, transducers and devices. Below are examples of exceptions that would be considered acceptable:
a. When varying static pressures inside ductwork cannot be simulated, and where a sensor signals the controls system to initiate sequences at various duct static pressures, it is acceptable to simulate the various pressures with a Pneumatic Squeeze-Bulb Type Signaling Device with gauge temporarily attached to the sensing tube leading to the transmitter. It is not acceptable to reset the various set-points, nor to simulate an electric analog signal (unless approved as noted above).
b. Dirty filter pressure drops can be simulated using sheets of cardboard at filter face.
c. Freeze-stat safeties can be simulated by packing portion of sensor with ice.
d. High outside air temperatures can be simulated with a hair blower.
e. High entering cooling coil temperatures can be used to simulate entering cooling coil conditions.
f. Do not use signal generators to simulate sensor signals unless approved by the Contracting Officer's Representative, as noted above, for special cases.
g. Control set points can be altered. For example, to see the air conditioning compressor lockout work at an outside air temperature below 13 degrees C, when the outside air temperature is above 13 degrees C, temporarily change the lockout set point to be minus 18 degrees C above the current outside air temperature. Caution: Set points are not to be raised or lowered to a point such that damage to the components, systems, or the building structure and/or contents will occur.
h. Test duct mounted smoke detectors in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Perform the tests with air system at minimum airflow condition in ductwork.
i. Test current sensing relays used for fan and pump status signals to control system to indicate unit failure and run status by resetting the set point on the relay to simulate a lost belt or unit failure while the unit is running.
Confirm that the failure alarm was generated and received at the control system. After the test is conducted, return the set point to its original set-point or a set-point as indicated by the Contracting Officer's Representative.
3.3.4.4.2 Aborted Tests and Re-Testing
Abort Functional Performance Tests if any deficiency prevents successful completion of the test or if any required commissioning team member is not present for the test.
Reimburse the Government for all costs associated with effort lost due to re-testing due to test failures and aborted tests. These costs must include salary, travel costs, and per diem for Government team members.
Re-test only after all deficiencies identified during the original tests have been corrected.
3.3.4.4.2.1 100 Percent Sample
Systems or equipment for which 100 percent sample size are tested fail if one or more of the test procedures results in discovery of a deficiency and the deficiency cannot be resolved within 5 minutes during the test.
Re-test to the extent necessary to confirm that the deficiencies have been corrected without negatively impacting the performance of the rest of the system.
3.3.4.4.2.2 Less than 100 Percent Sample
For systems tests with a sample size less than 100 percent, if one or more of the test procedures for an item of equipment or a system results in discovery of a deficiency, regardless of whether the deficiency is corrected during the sample tests, the item of equipment or system fails the test.
a. If the system failure rate is 5 percent or less, meaning that 5 percent or less of the equipment or systems had at least one deficiency, re-test only on the items which experienced the initial failures.
b. If the system failure rate is higher than 5 percent, meaning that more than 5 percent of equipment or systems tested had at least one deficiency, re-test the items which experienced the initial failures to the extent necessary to confirm that the deficiencies have been corrected. In addition, test another random sample of the same size as the initial sample for the first time. If the second random sample set has any failures, re-test those failed items and all remaining equipment and systems to complete 100 percent testing of that system type.
3.4 Acceptance
All Functional Performance Test procedures must be completed prior to full systems acceptance.
Indicate acceptance of each item of equipment and systems tested by signature of each commissioning team member for each Functional Performance Test on the Functional Performance Test Checklists.
The Contractor's Quality Control Representative and the Technical Commissioning Specialists must indicate acceptance after the equipment and systems are free of deficiencies.
3.5 Training Plan
Develop a training plan which identifies all training required by specification sections associated with commissioned systems. Include a matrix listing each training requirement, content of the training, the trainer name, trainer contact information, and schedule and location of training. Submit an electronic copy of the Training Plan to the Commissioning Specialists and the Government no later than 30 calendar days prior to the associated training.
Document training attendance using training attendance rosters and provide completed attendance rosters to the Commissioning Specialists and the Government no later than 7 calendar days following the completion of training for each system to be commissioned. Submit an electronic copy.
3.6 COMMISSIONING REPORT
Following the completion of Functional Performance Tests, the Lead Commissioning Specialist must prepare a Commissioning Report.
a. Include an executive summary describing the overall commissioning process, the results of the commissioning process, any outstanding deficiencies and recommended resolutions, and any seasonal testing that must be scheduled for a later date. Indicate, in the executive summary, whether the systems meet the requirements of the construction contract.
b. Detail any deficiencies discovered during the commissioning process and the corrective actions taken in the report. Include the completed Pre-Functional Checklists, Functional Performance Test Checklists, Commissioning Plans, the Issues Log, Performance Verification Test Reports, Training Attendance Rosters, and the final TAB Report.
c. Submit the Commissioning Report no later than 14 calendar days following commissioning team acceptance of all Functional Performance Tests. Submit one hard copy and an electronic copy.
