Redundant SPS Configuration Study Clause Samples
The Redundant SPS Configuration Study clause requires an analysis or assessment of the design and implementation of redundant Safety and Protection Systems (SPS) within a project. This typically involves evaluating whether backup or duplicate systems are properly configured to ensure continued operation in the event of a failure of the primary system. For example, the study may review system schematics, test procedures, and failover mechanisms to confirm that redundancy objectives are met. The core function of this clause is to ensure system reliability and safety by proactively identifying and addressing potential weaknesses in the redundancy of critical protection systems.
Redundant SPS Configuration Study. NGrid shall perform pursuant to this Agreement a detailed engineering and cost analysis (the “Redundant SPS Configuration Study”) that describes the redundant SPS equipment, controls, communications and other configuration elements (the “Redundant SPS Configuration”) and that specifies a non-binding estimate of the actual cost of the Redundant SPS Configuration, including, without limitation, the estimated actual cost of designing, engineering, procuring equipment for, constructing, installing, testing and commissioning the Redundant SPS Configuration (the “Estimated Cost Amount”). The Parties agree to operate the SPS in accordance with the operational criteria established in the Facility Study and the Redundant SPS Configuration Study.
