How to implement a maintenance, operation, and testing program!

Proper procedures are critical to reliability, safety, and complying with all Authorities Having Jurisdiction.

What should you know about current emergency power requirements? Much more than ten years ago with more in the years to come. There are 170+ emergency power supply system (EPSS) requirements found in the National Fire Protection Association, OSHA, CMS, DNV, and The Joint Commission codes and standards. Motor and Generator Institute makes compliance with those requirements easy by providing the necessary tools to develop a maintenance, testing, and compliance program for your emergency power supply system. Each component of the EPSS; cooling, electrical, fuel, lubrication, starting batteries and battery charging subsystems, all have their own unique needs.

  • Am I performing all maintenance activities adequately to ensure the EPSS will start & run when needed, and meet all AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) requirements?
  • Do I have the proper EPSS documentation and records for inspections, maintenance, and testing?
  • Am I performing weekly inspections properly to ensure the EPSS will start and run when needed and meet AHJ requirements?
  • Did I perform all monthly and triennial tests properly? Will AHJ surveyors accept the testing reports?
  • Does my EPSS installation meet NFPA requirements for lighting, cooling, ventilation, fuel supply and storage?
