ANSI/NETA ATS-2025

Standard for Acceptance Testing Specifications for Electrical Power Equipment and Systems

The NETA Acceptance Testing Specifications was developed for use by those responsible for assessing the suitability for initial energization of electrical power equipment and systems and to specify field tests and inspections that ensure these systems and apparatus perform satisfactorily, minimizing downtime and maximizing life expectancy. These specifications are designed to assure that tested electrical equipment and systems are operational, are within applicable standards and manufacturers’ tolerances, and are installed in accordance with design specifications. Use the ANSI/NETA ATS-2025 as a guide to ensure that electrical systems and apparatus not only meet project specifications, but that the manufacturer of the equipment supplied a product that will perform safely and reliably for many years to come. New content for the ANSI/NETA ATS-2025 includes: Section 7.28 Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) Section 7.29 Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Systems Tables 100.6 Medium-Voltage Cable Acceptance Test Values Appendix B Guidance for Circuit Reliability Considerations for Medium and High Voltage Cable Methods of Test

ANSI/NETA ECS-2024

Standard for Electrical Commissioning Specifications for Electrical Power Equipment and Systems

It is the purpose of these specifications to assure that tested electrical equipment and systems are operational, are within applicable standards and manufacturer's tolerances, and are installed in accordance with design specifications. The ANSI/NETAStandard for Electrical Commissioning Specifications for Electrical Power Equipment and Systems was developed for use by those responsible for testing and commissioning newly installed or retrofitted electrical power systems and equipment to guide them in specifying and performing the necessary inspections, tests, measurements, and system performance verification to commission an electrical power system infrastructure. This document aids in ensuring safe, reliable operation of the electrical power equipment and systems. It is essential to commission newly installed and retrofitted electrical power equipment and systems. Additionally, acceptance testing of the equipment provides the baseline test results for maintenance programs and equipment trending, while commissioning verifies the electrical equipment and system meets the owner’s project requirements and basis of design. The 2024 ANSI/NETA Standard for Electrical Commissioning Specifications for Electrical Power Equipment and Systems is the third edition and most current revision of this document, and was approved as an American National Standard on July 2, 2024.

ANSI/NETA ETT-2022

Standard for Certification of Electrical Testing Technicians

- Establishes minimum requirements for qualification and certification of the electrical testing technician (ETT) - Details the minimum training and experience requirements for electrical testing technicians and provides criteria for documenting qualifications and certification - Details the requirements for an independent and impartial certification system to certify electrical testing technicians This standard was created to codify the experience, education, and training requirements necessary for an individual to obtain a level of competency as an electrical test technician. NETA carefully examines the qualifications of each NETA Accredited Company (NAC) in addition to certifying the individual technician employed by that NAC. Because of this requirement, another directive of this task group was to assure that the NETA requirements for certification were aligned with an alternate certification path for qualified individuals. The ANSI/NETA Standard for Certification of Electrical Testing Technicians was approved as a revised American National Standard on January 7, 2022.
