Episode 8: Powering Into the New Year – Why Acceptance Testing Sets the Standard for Reliability
Keeping Current by ERS and HVM
Episode notes
As facilities prepare for a new year of evolving electrical demands, acceptance testing plays a critical role in setting the foundation for long-term reliability. In this episode of Keeping Current, host Joe O’Dwyer is joined by Jeff Brittain, Director of Regional Sales at HVM, to explore why acceptance testing is more than a commissioning checkbox, it’s a risk-reduction strategy.
Together, they discuss how proper acceptance testing verifies equipment performance before energization, identifies hidden deficiencies early, and helps organizations avoid costly failures once systems are in service.
