Article 43U.K.General principles
1.Each TSO shall periodically assess the proper functioning of all equipment and capabilities considered in the system defence plan and the restoration plan. To this end, each TSO shall periodically verify the compliance of such equipment and capabilities, in accordance with paragraph 2 and with Article 41(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/631, Article 35(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1388 and Article 69(1) and (2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1447.
2.By 18 December 2019 each TSO shall define a test plan in consultation with the DSOs, the SGUs identified pursuant to Articles 11(4) and 23(4), the defence service providers and the restoration service providers. The test plan shall identify the equipment and capabilities relevant for the system defence plan and the restoration plan that have to be tested.
3.The test plan shall include the periodicity and conditions of the tests, following the minimum requirements outlined in Articles 44 to 47. The test plan shall follow the methodology laid down in Regulation (EU) 2016/631 Regulation (EU) 2016/1388 and Regulation (EU) 2016/1447 for the corresponding tested capability. [F1For SGUs that, immediately before IP completion day, were] not subject to Regulation (EU) 2016/631, Regulation (EU) 2016/1388 and Regulation (EU) 2016/1447, the test plan shall follow the provisions of national law.
4.Each TSO, DSO, SGU, defence service provider and restoration service provider shall not endanger the operational security of the transmission system and of the interconnected transmission system during the test. The test shall be conducted in a way that minimises the impact on system users.
5.The test is deemed to be successful when it fulfils the conditions established by the relevant system operator pursuant to paragraph 3. As long as a test fails to fulfil these criteria, the TSO, DSO, SGU, defence service provider and restoration service provider shall repeat the test.
