Study Notes
2023 NETA MTS Standard
- Approved American National Standard: ANSI/NETA MTS-2023
- Standard for Maintenance Testing Specifications for Electrical Power Equipment & Systems
- Secretariat: NETA (InterNational Electrical Testing Association)
- Approved by: American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
Approval of an American National Standard
- Requires verification by ANSI of due process, consensus, other criteria by the standards developer.
- Consensus means substantial agreement from materially affected interests. This includes all views and objections.
Copyright and Alterations
- 2023 ANSI/NETA MTS Standard for Maintenance Testing Specifications for Electrical Power Equipment and Systems is protected under US copyright laws.
- Purchasers may reproduce and use portions of the standard for certain purposes, as long as the source is clearly identified in writing.
- The standard must be cited in other documentation as well as when creating project specifications, basis of design documentation, maintenance plans, or other similar uses.
Document Structure
- Divided into thirteen separate sections, which have been numbered.
- Section 7 is the main body of the document including specific information for inspecting and maintaining electrical equipment.
- Other sections cover various topics such as general scope, applicable references, qualifications for testing organizations and personnel, etc.
General Scope
- These specifications incorporate comprehensive field tests and inspections to assess the suitability for continued service.
- Purpose: to assure tested electrical equipment/systems meet specified operational criteria, standards, and manufacturer's tolerances.
Applicable References
- The document references various codes, standards, and specifications from ANSI, ASTM International, IEEE, EASA, CSA, NFPA, etc.
- Ensures tests and inspections follow the most recent versions for accuracy.
Qualifications of Testing Organizations and Personnel
- Testing organizations must be independent of manufacturers, suppliers, and installers.
- Technicians must be trained, experienced, and certified per ANSI/NETA ETT standards.
- Higher level certifications available (Level 3+)
Division of Responsibility
- Owner's representative provides the testing organization with necessary information and documents.
