| | THAT THE IDENTIFICATION FOR EVERY CIRCUIT SUPPLIED BY A |
| | PANEL-BOARD OR SWITCHBOARD BE LEGIBLE AND CLEARLY STATE |
| | THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE FOR WHICH THE CIRCUIT IS USED. |
| | CIRCUITS USED FOR THE SAME PURPOSE MUST BE IDENTIFIED |
| | AS TO THEIR LOCATION. FOR EXAMPLE, SMALL APPLIANCE |
| | BRANCH CIRCUITS CAN SUPPLY OUTLETS IN THE KITCHEN, |
| | DINING ROOM, AND KITCHEN COUNTERTOPS. IDENTIFYING THE |
| | CIRCUITS AS SMALL APPLIANCE BRANCH CIRCUITS IS NOT |
| | ACCEPTABLE; INSTEAD, THEY SHOULD BE IDENTIFIED AS |
| | ``KITCHEN WALL RECEPTACLES,'' ``DINING ROOM FLOOR |
| | RECEPTACLE,'' OR ``KITCHEN COUNTERTOP RECEPTACLES LEFT |
| | OF SINK.'' CIRCUIT DIRECTORIES CONTAINING MULTIPLE |
| | ENTRIES WITH ONLY ``LIGHTS'' OR ``OUTLETS'' DO NOT |

| | ON PLANS FOR RESIDENTIAL HOMES IS NOT ACCEPTABLE WHEN |
| | THESE DEVICES ANY ACTUALLY FALL UNDER THE DEFINITIONS |
| | OF SMOKE ALARMS WHICH WOULD BE SHOWN AS SA/SMOKE |
| | ALARMS. |
| | THIS AHJ HAS PERMITTED THE GENERAL USE OF THE SD FOR |
| | SMOKE DETECTORS AND WAS ALWAYS ACCEPTED. |
| | BY THE DEFINITIONS AS STATED IN NFPA-72 A SD/ SMOKE |
| | DETECTOR IS ONLY A DEVICE WHICH WILL DETECT AND WILL |
| | NOT SOUND AN AUDIBLE ALARM. THIS WOULD BE DONE BY |
| | HORN/SIREN TYPE DEVICES. PLEASE SEE THE DEFINITIONS OF |
| | SA/SMOKE ALARMS; THESE ARE DEVICES WHICH ARE 120V (AS |
| | SHOWN) AND WOULD DETECT AND SOUND AN ALARM. THIS IS |
| | SOMETHING THAT IS NOW BEING COMMENTED ON OTHER REVIEWS |
| | FOR OTHER NEW HOMES. |
| | ** PLEASE SEE THAT SMOKE ALARMS ARE STATED IN THE FBC |
| | RESIDENTIAL CODE/ FBC AND IN NFPA-72. |
| | IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS COMMENT PLEASE DO |
| | NOT HESITATE IN CONTACTING THIS OFFICE*. |
