	At Uppsala University, the FREIA facility for research and development of new accelerators and associated instrumentation, is presently in construction. Associated to a new Helium Liquefier, a Horizontal Test Cryostat will be used for high power RF tests of completely equipped SC cavities. This paper presents the main characteristics of the cryostat and the associated cryogenic distribution system. Two types of cavities have been considered for test purpose: SC elliptical cavities for future free electron lasers and SC cavities for high intensity proton accelerators (i.e. SC spokes). A special valve box including a subcooling stage and power coupler cooling with supercritical Helium supply have been designed, for temperature operation ranging from 2K to 4.2 K. This facility will play an essential role in the development and test of cavities, couplers and cryomodules for the ESS project. High power RF sources will be installed in order to allow unique and complete tests of spoke cavities and cryomodules at high nominal peak power.

At Uppsala University, the FREIA facility for research and development of new accelerators and associated instrumentation, is presently in construction.
