Metered pilot test report
Brisbane, Queensland · matrix@msaart.online · 0410 248 153 · msaart.online
1. Customer and site
- Customer
- Site location
- Site contact
2. Generator
- Make and model
- Rating (kVA / kW)
- Serial number
- Fuel
- Engine hours at start
- Condition at start
3. Meters
Separate from the retrofit and from the generator's own gauges. Your staff can read them during every test run.
- Fuel meter (make, model, serial)
- Fuel meter calibration certificate
- Kilowatt-hour meter (make, model, serial)
- Kilowatt-hour meter calibration certificate
- Where fitted, and by whom (licence number where needed)
- Fuel measured by (supply line only / supply minus return / day tank by weight)
- Fuel temperature or density correction applied
4. What was agreed before the pilot
Method: built on IPMVP Option B (retrofit isolation, every deciding quantity metered). The boundary is the generator.
- Agreed load (kW, and % of rating)
- Length of each test run
- Number of runs before and after
- How the load is held (site load / load bank)
- Agreed result (reduction in litres per kWh)
5. Retrofit fitted
- Unit (make, model and serial), and who supplied it
- Date fitted, and by whom
6. Results
| Date | Run time (h) | Average load (kW) | Air temp (°C) | Fuel in (litres) | Energy out (kWh) | Litres per kWh | Read by (name and organisation) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Before | ||||||||
| After | ||||||||
| Difference | ||||||||
- Change in litres per kWh (%)
- Agreed result met?
- Yes ☐ No ☐
- Performance fee payable under the quote?
- Yes ☐ No ☐
- Generator still carries the load the site needs?
- Yes ☐ No ☐
7. Anything that could affect the comparison
For example a change in load, fuel supply or weather, a fuel delivery, or maintenance on the generator, noted when it happened.
8. Sign-off
For Metered Retrofits
Name, signature and date
For the customer
Name, signature and date
This report states only what the meters recorded on this generator during this pilot. It makes no other claim about the retrofit or its results elsewhere.
