NHS England HTM 06-01 Electrical Services Supply and Distribution (2017 Edition) 17.81-17.83: Monthly on-load generator test of at least one hour including changeover

Secondary supplies may be generators, CHP or rotary or static UPS, and DNO arrangements influence maintenance. Every standby generator should run on line carrying the building load once a month, for at least one hour and preferably two, and the test should include the interlock and changeover arrangements; how the test is started depends on the distribution strategy.
