Abstract :
Each superconducting coil of the ATLAS Barrel Toroid has to pass the commissioning tests on surface before the installation in the underground cavern for the ATLAS Experiment at CERN. Particular acceptance criteria have been developed to characterize the individual coils during the on-surface testing. Based on these criteria and the limited time of the test, a compressed test program was proposed and realized. In only a few cases some additional tests were required to justify the coil performance and acceptance. In this paper the analysis of the test results is presented and discussed with respect to the acceptance criteria. Some differences in the parameters found between the identical coils are analyzed in relation to coil production features
