An annular barrier system for proving a testable annular barrier arranged between a first metal casing or borehole and a second metal casing. The annular barrier system has a first annular barrier and a second annular barrier, each barrier including a tubular part made of metal extending in a longitudinal direction for mounting as part of the second metal casing, an expandable metal sleeve surrounding and connected with the tubular part and defining an annular barrier space, and a first fluid passage in the tubular part for letting fluid into the annular barrier space to expand the sleeve. The annular barrier system further includes a sensor, and when the expandable sleeves are expanded to abut the first metal casing or borehole, a first annular space is at least partly defined between the annular barriers. The sensor is arranged to determine a condition of the annular space in order to test the isolation ability of at least one of the annular barriers.
An annular barrier system for proving testable annular barriers arranged between a first metal casing or borehole and a fixed second metal casing being fixed within the borehole, the second metal casing having an outer face, the annular barrier system comprising:
