  A bulk Nb superconducting β=0.3 Triple-Spoke (T-Spoke) cavity operating at 352 MHz, was designed at IPN and fabricated thanks to EURISOL project financial support. The cavity will be tested in November 2013 at a new X-rays shielded facility dedicated to cryogenic tests of fully dressed (LHe tank, Magnetic Shields, Fast Active Cold Piezoelectric Tuning System (FACPTS), RF Power coupler) Spoke cavities in the horizontal cryomodule CM0. The CW RF power and cryogenic power @T=2K are 80kW and 120W respectively. Four vertical cold RF tests were performed in a vertical cryostat and the data are reported. All components (cold box, cryogenic lines, He gas heater, RF power system with 2 RF power couplers, LHe bath pumps) were delivered and successfully tested. The cryogenic circuit in CM0 was finished and we successfully mounted the fully dressed T-Spoke cavity. A R.T tuning system was used for static and dynamic mechanical measurements on Single (S-Spoke) and T-Spoke cavities. Mechanical stiffness, transfer function, vibrations, Lorentz detuning were investigated using the FACPTS. Field profile in S-Spoke and T-Spoke cavities were performed using a motorized field perturbation stand.
