| | THIS REVIEW WAS DONE UNDER THESE CURRENT CODE CYCLES: |
| | |
| | THE 2004 FLORIDA BUILDING CODE, 2007 REVISIONS, 2005 |
| | NEC, NFPA-72 2002, NFPA-101 2003, 2004 FBC AS AMENDED, |
| | CHAPTER 1.AND FOUND NONCOMPLIANT WITH THE FOLLOWING: |
| | |
| | THESE COMMENTS RELATE ONLY TO THE AREA WHERE LIGHTING |
| | CIRCUITS ARE BEING EXTENDED, ADDED OR CHANGED. |
| | |
| | 1} THIS PROJECT MUST COMPLY WITH CHAPTER 13 FBC. SEE |
| | 13-415.1ABC.1.1FOR TIME CLOCK REQUIREMENTS AND FOR |
| | LIGHTING DENSITIES. ALL THAT IS REQUIRED FOR THE |
| | ELECTRICAL REVIEW IS THE BASIC PRESCRIPTIVE |
| | REQUIREMENTS. SEE 13-415.2.ABC.1 PERFORMANCE |
| | CALCULATION PROCEDURES, GENERAL. |
| | THE INTERIOR LIGHTING POWER ALLOWANCE FOR A BUILDING OR |
| | A SEPARATELY METERED OR PERMITTED PORTION OF A BUILDING |
| | SHALL BE DETERMINED BY EITHER THE BUILDING AREA METHOD |
| | DESCRIBED IN SECTION 415.2.C.1 OR THE SPACE-BY-SPACE |
| | METHOD DESCRIBED IN SECTION 415.2.B.1.THE INSTALLED |
| | INTERIOR LIGHTING POWER IDENTIFIED IN ACCORDANCE WITH |
| | SECTION 415.2.ABC.1.1 SHALL NOT EXCEED THE INTERIOR |
| | LIGHTING POWER ALLOWANCE DEVELOPED IN ACCORDANCE WITH |
| | SECTION 415.2.C.1 OR 415.2.B.1. THIS CAN BE |
| | DEMONSTRATED ON THE PLANS INDICATING THE WATTAGES OF |
| | THE LUMINAIRES CHOSEN FOR THE PROJECT CONFORM TO THE |
| | DENSITY REQUIREMENTS.INDICATE WATTAGES ON THE FIXTURE |
| | SCHEDULE. |
| | |
| | 2} 13-415.1.ABC.1.2 SPACE CONTROL. |
| | EACH SPACE ENCLOSED BY CEILING-HEIGHT PARTITIONS SHALL |
| | HAVE AT LEAST ONE CONTROL DEVICE TO INDEPENDENTLY |
| | CONTROL THE GENERAL LIGHTING WITHIN THE SPACE. EACH |
| | MANUAL DEVICE SHALL BE READILY ACCESSIBLE AND LOCATED |
| | SO THE OCCUPANTS CAN SEE THE CONTROLLED LIGHTING. |
| | |
| | |
| | SUBMIT A LEGEND OF FIXTURE TYPES AND WATTAGES ON THE |
| | PLAN TO CORRELATE WITH THE ONES IN THE CALCULATIONS. |
| | |
| | |
| | IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CALL. |
