Abstract	The Electron Beam Test Facility (EBTF) is planned for installation in late 2012 at Daresbury Laboratory. An S-band RF photoinjector provides ultrashort, low emittance electron bunches up to 6 MeV. A suite of diagnostics has been designed to fully characterise the bunches. A particular focus has been on producing and measuring bunch lengths less than 100 fs. This can be achieved with a multi-cell standing wave S-band transverse deflecting cavity. Operating such a cavity with low energy electrons provides certain challenges which are discussed in this paper with respect to beam dynamic simulations.
