2.1 General requirements
2.1.1 Site of type test
2.1.1.1 Complete machine
The complete machine type test of lift (hereinafter referred to as "complete machine test") shall be carried out in the test shaft (test site) of the manufacturer or type test organization.
As for the lifts listed in the "Parameter List of Extraordinary Lifts" (see Annex B) or the lifts which are only used in single projects and with special structure, if it is really necessary to carry out complete machine test on the use spot, the lift manufacturer shall clearly declare to and obtain written consent from the user in advance, file an application to and obtain written confirmation from the type test organization, transact construction notice as required with the "Manufacturing License of Special Equipment" or "Letter of Decision on Acceptance of Special Equipment Administrative Licensing" (the copies shall be stamped with the official seal of applicant), and then is allowed to install one type-test-intended complete machine on the use spot (the complete machines used for type test hereinafter are referred to as "sample machine"). On completion of type test, the manufacturer shall conduct complete inspection over the lift, replace the worn parts and components and carry out debugging again.
The type test of sample machine may be carried out simultaneously with the performance test during the process of lift installation supervision and inspection, with data shared. The installation supervision and inspection report shall be issued after the sample machine passes the type test.
