Under 46 CFR §61.40-10, a test procedure document for an automated monitoring system aboard an inspected vessel must specify which of the following elements in each test instruction?
- ✓ Equipment status, apparatus necessary, safety precautions, safety control and alarm setpoints, the procedure to be followed, and the expected test resultCorrect
- B. Equipment status, the procedure to be followed, and the name of the certifying engineer only
- C. Safety precautions, the procedure to be followed, and the as-found condition of the equipment
- D. Apparatus necessary, safety precautions, the procedure to be followed, and the as-left condition of the equipment
Why A is correct
46 CFR §61.40-10(a) lists all required elements of each test instruction: equipment status, apparatus necessary to perform the tests, safety precautions, safety control and alarm setpoints, the procedure to be followed, and the expected test result. All six elements are required; omitting any one of them does not satisfy the regulation.
