The goal is to execute the “Cause and Effect” functional check when the initiator and actuator have completed their precomissioning checksheets.
To achieve this goal, the idea is to group C&E Function test packs with the initiator/actuator test documentation completed to prepare a baseline plan.
The typical approach
The typical approach in most of the projects, is the matrix representation in spreadsheets, where the list of initiators are listed on the frozen columns to the left and the actuators are columns to the right (with some few frozen rows at the top for the tag, description and B checksheet).
The crossings cells of the rows(initiator) vs columns (actuator) are filled with the effect (Cl – Close Valve, OP – Open valve, SD – Shutdown device), etc
