Table 32 – Actuation Performance<br />

Results<br />

Acceptable – Gate or valve actuates from fully open to fully closed<br />

in the required timeframe. (Takes < 2 minutes for valves and < 10<br />

minutes for gates if requirement is not known.)<br />

Unacceptable – Gate or valve does not actuate from fully open to<br />

fully closed in the required timeframe. (Takes ≥ 2 minutes for<br />

valves and ≥ 10 minutes for gates if requirement is not known.)<br />

Performance based on some deficiency of the electric-powered<br />

Test T2.3.11: Electrical Operators – Electric Controls<br />

Table 33 – Electric Controls<br />

Results<br />

Good – Control wiring is clean, with no excessive soil, fatigue, or<br />

wear apparent on insulation or jacket material. Wiring is securely<br />

connected to devices, or is loosely connected but can be corrected<br />

without spare parts or special tools. Control devices (pushbuttons,<br />

contactors, switches, coils) are clean and function as designed.<br />

Control enclosures are clean, with no excessive soil, corrosion, or<br />

physical damage.<br />

Fair – Control wiring, enclosures, and devices are clean and in good<br />

overall condition, but spare parts are no longer available. Wiring<br />

insulation or jacket is polyvinyl chloride (PVC) compound.<br />

Moderate – Control wiring has minor wear, fatigue, or soil apparent<br />

on insulation or jacket material. Some control wiring appears<br />

loosely connected to devices, and cannot be corrected, or cannot be<br />

corrected without spare parts or special tools. Control devices<br />

(pushbuttons, contactors, switches, coils) are not clean or do not<br />

function as designed. Control enclosures have some soil, corrosion,<br />

or physical damage.<br />

Severe – Control wiring has wear, fatigue, or soil apparent on<br />

insulation or jacket material. Control wiring has become<br />

disconnected from corresponding devices, and cannot be corrected.<br />

Control devices (pushbuttons, contactors, switches, coils) do not<br />

function. Control enclosures have excessive soil, corrosion, or<br />

physical damage.<br />
