Plans
Only Okada Facilities approved for construction plans shall be used.
6. PROCEDURES
Safety Procedure
All workers to wear appropriate PPE for the task, i.e. goggles, mask, gloves etc.
All workers must be understand and physically fit in performing the test.
Materials and equipment must be inspected before use.
Ensure safety work permit is approved before proceeding to test.
Install safety signage around the area.
Pre-Tapping Procedure
Coordinate with OKADA FM the schedule of adjustment / relocation of PPR pipes.
Tenants of the affected areas shall be informed that there will be an interruption of
the supply of waterline for about 6 hours.
Prepare pre-fabricated pipes and fittings.

Draining Procedure
Prepare a pipe / hose connection from the existing PPR Pipe stub-out and tap to
the nearest drain located at lower ground floor.
Tapping Procedure
Open the PPR stub out valve which serves as temporary drain valve and ensure
continuous flow of water to the drain pipe connected at the drain located at LGF.
Leave the valve open until the water is clear and free from debris.
Disinfect the pipes using chlorine.
Testing Procedure
Pre-testing will be performed prior to shutdown works to get the existing system
pressure. The resulting value will be treated as the working pressure of the
system.
The pipeline will be charged with water by opening the main isolation valve and air
will be released manually through mounting a temporary air vent to an existing
water stub-out.
Pressurize the pipework and equipment to the working pressure and close all
isolating valves including the temporary drain valve to isolate the system. Vent the
trapped air through air vents and check for leakage.
Release the pressure and then record the static pressure.
Pressurize the pipework to 1.5 times of the working pressure.
Gauge pressure is checked from the pressure gauge.
After thorough checking for possible leakage waiting for about 15 to 30 minutes,
the specified test pressure is recorded in witness of the representative(s) from
OKADA FM.
Maintain the pipework under pressure for 1 hour and record the final pressure.
This record shall be witnessed by OKADA FM.
If any leaks are found, repair it by shutting the system down again, closing the
main isolation valve and draining the water pipes in coordination with the OKADA
FM.
Leave the system full after the pressure test as witnessed by OKADA FM.
Emergency Arrangements
The Health & Safety officer will be responsible for coordinating the emergency
procedure. If there is an emergency the Health & Safety officer will be notified
immediately.
The Health & Safety officer will then notify the relevant emergency services if
required
The Health & Safety officer will notify the Safety Advisor of the emergency, if the
site nurse is required he will be notified, the Safety Advisor will attend the
emergency and take control of the emergency.
The required notification, investigation and reporting of the incident will be
conducted in accordance with the site HSE Plan.
