On December 1, 2017, the National Energy Administration made corresponding adjustments to the qualification equipment for electric power commissioning and testing. The qualification equipment for commissioning and testing is the same in each province and region, while some equipment that is not commonly used in the actual work of electric power enterprises was omitted. Obtaining the Level 4 commissioning and testing qualification allows for the installation, maintenance, or testing of electric power facilities with voltage levels below 35 kV.
Level 4 commissioning and testing equipment includes series resonance, power frequency withstand voltage test devices, DC high voltage generators, induced withstand voltage test devices, dielectric loss testers, loop resistance testers, and transformation ratio testers.
Article 17: Those who obtain the Level 4 commissioning and testing qualification for electric power facility installation (repair, testing) can engage in testing activities for electric power facilities with voltage levels below 35 kV. Applicants shall meet the following conditions:
(1) Legal person qualification and a complete organizational structure;
