All Non-critical functions

Non-critical alarms/Interlocks
Non-critical Instruments
HSE critical alarms/Interlocks
HSE critical Instruments

Come under the Non critical test protocol

If a NCTP is not justified, the above mentioned things can be placed in a CTP.
A CTP includes the completion of 3 stages.
1. Mechanical completion
2. Functional verification
3. Post functional verification.
Mechanical completion includes
1. Drawing verification

2. Sanitary piping verification

3. Materials of Construction verification
4. Electrical verification
5. HVAC verification
6. Non- sanitary piping verification
7. Equipment verification
8. Safety/Bio-safety verification
9. Documentation verification
