What must be completed before a boiler can be placed in operation after construction?

Before a boiler can be placed in operation after construction, it is essential that it is inspected and tested. This process ensures that the boiler has been built according to the required standards and regulations, confirming that it is safe for operation. Inspections typically check for structural integrity, proper installation of components, and adherence to safety protocols. Testing usually involves verifying that the boiler operates efficiently and responds correctly under various operating conditions. These steps are critical for preventing accidents and ensuring the unit operates as intended.

While licensing and certification, connection and fueling, and approval and registration are also important aspects in the life cycle of a boiler, they tend to happen after the initial inspection and testing to ensure the unit is compliant and functional before officially entering service.
