At EA, specifications <br />provide the reader with a detailed and methodical description of how the system or <br />component will look, feel, and operate. They are developed in close collaboration <br />with our client and all relevant stakeholders to ensure thoroughness, <br />completeness, and accuracy. <br />Functional specifications require an acute attention to detail as they serve four <br />vital roles: <br />1. They facilitate alignment between stakeholders before configuration begins <br />2. They provide a set of guidelines and constraints, which helps engineers <br />plan properly and avoid cost over runs by letting them know when they can <br />consider configuration complete <br />3. They act as compliance tools, which are incorporated into internal, FAT, <br />and SAT documentation <br />4. They are utilized as training and on -site troubleshooting tools <br />Refer to Volume 11, Appendix E* Example Technical Documentation for a sample of <br />one of our functional specifications. <br />7.23 Panel and electrical design <br />Panel designs start with the development of a site's functional specification. A <br />complete functional specification should make it easy for an engineer to identify <br />and list the required I0, equipment, and communications channels. '.Chose <br />requirements along with the spatial, power, and heat dissipation requirements <br />form the components form the basis of the panel design. <br />Where possible, EA develops panel design standards to reduce future design, <br />maintenance, and training costs. These standards include: terminal, block layouts, <br />power supply sizing, component placement, and protective device sizing and usage. <br />7.2.4 "felting <br />Our seventh core value is `Nothing LeavesEntelptise Untested"' We believe that <br />testing standards and processes are what separates a good integrator from a great <br />integrator. Our testing processes play a key role in our ability to proudly claim <br />that we deliver "World Class Startups" to our clients. <br />To develop test procedures for a project, we start with the functional specification. <br />We test every I/O point from field to SCADA screen, every feature from <br />redundancy to security, and all process control subroutines. Outside of the <br />specified features, we also test for anomalies and attempt to conceive every way <br />Cllent City of Santa All - Revision, 1.0.0 <br />Document.
