10.10 FACTORY INSPECTION AND TEST
The purpose of the factory inspection is to establish whether the manufacturer has the conditions for
manufacturing the electrical product according to the relevant requirements. Factory inspections are
consisted of the initial factory inspection (carried out simultaneously with the certification test) and
the regular factory inspection.
Initial factory inspection is carried out to assure the manufacturing system can supply the products
submitted for registration at a stable pace and a high degree of quality. Regular factory inspection is
performed for the purpose of follow up. Initial factory inspection should be applied to equipments
like actuators, Sensors, Control panels and controllers. Meanwhile, regular factory inspection should
be carried out for SCADA software development and maintenance.
