| | 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 |
| | PROVIDE THE SUFFICIENT DETAIL REQUIRED BY THIS |
| | SECTION.* |

| | FBC 106.1.1,106.3.5.4,106.5 |
| | |
| | 21) NOTE: THIS COMMENT IS BASED ON UNKNOWN LIGHTING IN |
| | THE REMAINDER OF THE DWELLING. PLEASE SEE THAT THE |
| | RECESSED LIGHTING IN THE NUMBER AS SHOWN ON PLANS MUST |
| | BE BASED ON THE NUMBER OF FIXTURES AND MAXIMUM WATTAGE |
| | PER FIXTURE. PLEASE SEE THE PREVIOUS CODE 2002 WHICH IS |
| | SECTION 220.3B4. PLEASE SEE 220.14/220.12. |
| | PLEASE KNOW THIS WAS CONFIRMED AT THE SOUTHERN SECTION |

| | ADDITION TO THE GENERAL LIGHTING LOADS FIGURED. |
| | PLEASE CALL TO GO OVER. |
| | |
| | 22) NOTE: PLEASE BE SURE TO STATE THE TYPE OF RECESSED |
| | LIGHTING FIXTURE TO BE USED FBC 13-606.1.ABC.1.2.4. |
| | THIS IS TO ALLEVIATE THE AIR MOVEMENT FROM CONDITIONED |
| | SPACE ETC. |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | **IMPORTANT** |
| | ONCE AUDIT/REVIEWS ARE COMPLETE AND PLANS ARE PICKED UP |
| | FOR CORRECTIONS, PLEASE BE SURE TO COMPLETELY REMOVE |
| | ALL OLD/VOIDED SHEETS AND ONLY INSERT NEW REVISED |
| | SHEETS INTO TWO COMPLETE SETS FOR REVIEW AND STAMPING. |
| | DO NOT LEAVE ANY OLD/VOIDED SHEETS IN SETS. |
| | PLEASE DO NOT ATTACH SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS TO PLANS. ANY |
| | ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION SUCH AS PRODUCT APPROVALS, |
| | SPEC/CUT SHEETS, CALCULATIONS ETC. SHOULD BE PLACED |
| | INTO TWO SETS/FOLDERS/BINDERS ETC. |
| | PLEASE KNOW ONLY ONE SET OF THE OLD/VOIDED SHEETS |
| | SHOULD BE SUBMITTED FOR REFERENCE. |
| | THIS WILL HELP IN THE AUDIT/REVIEW PROCESS AND AVOID |
| | ANY DELAYS. |
