If gas leakage has occurred , then repair damage . Locate source of leakage and correct . 10 . Check voltage at panel entrance and check condition of all fuses and breakers . 11 . Run pumps individually to check rotation , amperage , and pumping capacity . This can be done by measuring the wet well , as pump is running and calculating the GPM . 12 . Run pumps , in lead lag system : Check for voltage in supply line , adjust for power factor correction , and service phase converters , if utilized , at least once per year . Note : similar voltage , amperage , power factor tests SHALL also be conducted at water and wastewater plants , by certified personnel . Make recommendations based on findings . 13 . Check wet well and verify alarm circuit is functioning properly and phone dialer is working ( if station is equipped ). Check that warning lights and other devices are working and protected from the weather . 14 .
