TJ-II is a very compact experimental device with highly stressed materials and very narrow tolerances to achieve good confinement properties. This required high quality standards for the fabrication and assembly of the device. For the high precision positioning of all stellarator components, a computer-based theodolite system was employed. A large number of tests were done during the assembly phase. Afterwards a comprehensive commissioning program was performed.

The [[TJ-II:flywheel generator|pulsed power supply]] was tested up to the maximum current values by means of a dummy load consisting of up to five inductively coupled coils.  
The [[TJ-II:Power supply|pulsed power supply]] was tested up to the maximum current values by means of a dummy load consisting of up to five inductively coupled coils.  
The distances between the coils were chosen in a way such that self and mutual inductances coincided with those of the coil systems of the stellarator, thus forming an electromagnetic image of TJ-II.
