Re-issue a Permit for Test

Status: Suspended for Test Suspended for Test → Re-issued for Test Re-issued for Test → Awaiting Re-opening for Test Awaiting Re-opening for Test → Live for Test Live for Test

Return a de-isolated permit to a working state for the test (Live for Test), once the isolations are in their test configuration.

When to use

Use this task when a permit is Suspended for Test (after Suspend a Permit for De-isolation for Test (DFT)) and the test can proceed.

Before you start — check before launching the task
  • The attached ICC is in a DFT in Place or Partial DFT in Place state.
  • The conditions for the test are confirmed.

Step-by-step

  1. As Permit Control Authority, sign Re-issue for Test. At least one attached ICC must be in DFT in Place or Partial DFT in Place. (Exact multi-ICC rule — confirm with the ICC module.)
  2. As Performing Authority, sign Accept revalidation for Test.
  3. As Operating Authority Representative, sign Re-open for test. The permit becomes Live for Test. Note for later: when you close from a test state, a service-test self-declaration is required (see Close a Permit).

Expected result

The permit is Live for Test; the test can be performed.

Key Referentiel rules

  1. The safe state for the test is controlled through the isolation rules for powered systems. (CR-GR-HSE-428 / CR-GR-HSE-432)
  2. Each resumption is a fresh issue, countersigned by the performing authority. (CR-GR-HSE-402, Req 3.5.1)

Tips & pitfalls

Tip — Live for Test is a distinct state. It is not the normal Live; downstream closing asks about the test result.

Pitfall — re-issuing for test without the ICC in a DFT state. The action is blocked until the isolation is in its test configuration.

Common mistakes

Mistake Consequence
Re-issuing for test with the ICC not in a DFT state Action blocked
