The' root cause.of the failure to identify unacceptable
' test data was that the process, as implemented,
- permitted.the acceptance criterion and implementing 4
instructions to be stated in the procedure in-a sufficiently. ambiguous manner that reviewers did not anticipate the misinterpretation adopted by the I'l performer and that recorded data outside=the limits of acceptability were not readily apparent.
That is, had 1
the 1CP-PT-02-02 test procedure been written in a format similar to the majority of procedures developed at
.i CPSES, with the range of acceptable inverter output l
voltage'specified, the process, as implemented, would have insured detection and resolution of the unacceptable test data.
