Site Acceptance Test (SAT) Services

On-Site Equipment Testing & Commissioning Verification

Overview - Site Acceptance Test (SAT) is conducted after equipment installation at the project site to verify that systems operate correctly under actual site conditions. SAT confirms that machinery, electrical systems, automation controls, and integrated components perform as intended before final handover and commercial operation.

Purpose of Site Acceptance Testing

• Verify proper installation of equipment and systems
• Confirm operational performance under real site conditions
• Validate integration with other systems
• Ensure safety and protection systems function correctly
• Identify issues prior to final commissioning
• Support smooth project handover
