| | APPLICATION # 07110460 |
| | ELECTRICAL PLAN REVIEW |
| | 10301 HERONWOOD LANE |
| | 1/10/08 |
| | WEST PALM BEACH, FL. |
| | |
| | THIS REVIEW WAS DONE UNDER THESE CURRENT CODE CYCLES: |
| | |
| | THE 2004 FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, 2006 REVISIONS, 2004 |
| | RESIDENTIAL BUILDING CODE, 2005 NEC, NFPA-72 2002, |
| | NFPA-101 2003, 2004 FBC AS AMENDED, CHAPTER 1, AND |
| | FOUND NONCOMPLIANT WITH THE FOLLOWING: |
| | ARTICLES REFERENCED ARE 2005 NEC UNLESS OTHERWISE |
| | NOTED. SHEET E-1, UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED. |
| | |
| | 1} THE RISER DIAGRAM INDICATES A 225 AMP MAIN BREAKER |
| | AND 3/0 COPPER FEEDERS, WHICH ARE CORRECT FOR THAT |
| | BREAKER PER 310.15(B)(6). THE LOAD CALCULATIONS ARE |
| | SHOWN AS 246 AMPS, AND ALTHOUGH THE NOTE AT THE BOTTOM |
| | OF THE CALCULATION INDICATES A 300 AMP SERVICE, THAT |
| | DOES NOT CORRELATE WITH THE RISER. SERVICE-LATERAL |
| | CONDUCTORS SHALL HAVE SUFFICIENT AMPACITY TO CARRY THE |
| | CURRENT FOR THE LOAD AS CALCULATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH |
| | ARTICLE 220 AND SHALL HAVE ADEQUATE MECHANICAL |
| | STRENGTH. THE SERVICE SIZE MUST BE INCREASED TO SERVE |
| | THE LOAD, OR BE RECALCULATED TO INDICATE THE DEMAND IS |
| | LESS THAN 225 AMPS. SEE 220.83. |
| | |
| | 2} THE 6/0 FEEDERS INDICATED ON THE RISER DO NOT |
| | CORRELATE WITH AWG SIZES IN THE NEC. |
| | |
| | 3} THE DISCONNECT FOR THE A/C UNIT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH |
| | 110.26 CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS. * THIS COMMENT IS MADE |
| | AGAIN BECAUSE OF THE "CONCRETE EQUIPMENT PAD"IN FRONT |
| | OF THE DISCONNECT. SEE 110.26. |
| | |
| | NOTE: ITEMS 2 AND 3 COULD HAVE BEEN REDLINED AND FIELD |
| | CORRECTED WITH A REVISION. THE LOAD CALCULATION AND |
| | SERVICE SIZE CANNOT BE REDLINED, SO ITEMS 2 AND 3 |
| | SHOULD BE CORRECTED AT THIS TIME TO SAVE REVISION |
| | FEES. |
