| 2009-03-03 08:56:57 | ** DENIED REVIEW ** |
| | |
| | 1) NOTE: PLANS HAVE ONLY BEEN SUBMITTED FOR PLAN REVIEW |
| | UNDER THE 2004 CODE AND OTHER ADOPTED STANDARDS. THERE |
| | WILL BE A CODE CHANGE AS OF MARCH 1ST, 2009 WHICH WILL |
| | REQUIRE ALL PLANS TO BE REVISED TO THE NEW CODES. |
| | PLEASE BE AWARE THE SUBMISSION OF PLANS FOR PLAN REVIEW |
| | ONLY DOES NOT LOCK THE PROJECT IN UNDER THE CURRENT |
| | CODES IN EFFECT. ONLY PERMIT APPLICATIONS UNDER A |
| | LICENSED CONTRACTOR WITH REQUIRED MINIMUM FEES APPLIED |
| | FOR BEFORE THAT DATE WILL *LOCK* THE PROJECT UNDER THE |
| | CURRENT CODE EDITIONS. THIS WILL AFFECT THE DESIGNS ON |
| | THE PROJECT FOR MANY ASPECTS HOWEVER THE ELECTRICAL |
| | CODE IS NOT SCHEDULED TO BE CHANGED UNTIL JULY 1ST, |
| | 2009. |
| | |
| | ** ANY REFERENCES BELOW TO FBC CHAPTER 1 IS BASED ON |
| | AMENDMENTS AS ADOPTED BY THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH. |
| | |
| | 2) NOTE: PLEASE BE SURE THE FOLLOWING CODES ARE STATED |
| | ON THE PLANS. THE PLANS MUST LIST THE ACTUAL DESIGN |
| | DOCUMENTS. |
| | THERE ARE SEVERAL SHEETS WITH REFERENCES TO CODES WHICH |
| | ARE NO LONGER IN EFFECT. |
| | FOR EXAMPLE: THE STATE FAC RULE 69A-60.003 AND .004 |
| | ADOPTED THE 2006 NFPA-1 AND 2006 NFPA-101 BEFORE THE |
| | ACTUAL ADOPTION OF THE NEW CODES. THE PLANS FOR EXAMPLE |
| | ON SHEET A9.0 DOES LIST THE PREVIOUS CODES AS WELL THE |
| | PREVIOUS ADOPTED RULE WHICH NO LONGER CONTAINS THESE |
| | CODES REFERENCES. IF THE FAC RULE IS GOING TO BE PLACED |
| | ON PLANS PLEASE REVISE TO THE SECTIONS AS NOTED ABOVE. |
| | PLEASE ALSO SEE OTHER EXAMPLES SUCH AS REFERENCE TO THE |
| | 2002 NFPA-70 ( NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE). THE FOLLOWING |
| | CODES WILL BE STATED AND NEEDED ON BOTH THE |
| | ARCHITECTURAL COVER SHEET AND ELECTRICAL PLANS. IT IS |
| | NOTICED THAT SOME CODES ARE OK ON ELECTRICAL PLANS |
| | HOWEVER NOT ALL. |
| | PLEASE BE AWARE THAT SHEETS SUCH AS FIRE ALARM AND |
| | STRUCTURAL SHEETS MAY NEED TO BE REVISED FOR CURRENT |
| | CODES. |
| | *** KEEP IN MIND IF THIS PROJECT HAS NOT APPLIED FOR |
| | PERMIT BEFORE THE MARCH 1ST, 2009 DEADLINE ALL CODES |
| | STATED BELOW MAY NOT BE ACCURATE. |
| | *** MANY SHEETS IN THE SETS OF PLANS SUBMITTED ALSO |
| | STATE * PALM BEACH COUNTY* AS THE AMENDED LOCAL |
| | AUTHORITY. AS THIS PROJECT IS IN THE CITY OF WEST PALM |
| | BEACH PLEASE ADJUST NOTES ACCORDINGLY. THIS IS STATED |
| | ON NUMEROUS SHEETS AND PLANS. |
| | PLEASE LIST AS FOLLOWS BASED ON CURRENT CODES. IF |
| | APPLICATION IS NOT MADE SOME OTHER CODES WILL CHANGE. |
| | 2004 FBC W/2007 REVISIONS |
| | 2005 NFPA-70 |

| | BEFORE MARCH 1ST, THE NEW CODES SHALL BE BASED ON THE |
| | 2007 FBC. |
| | |
| | |
| | 3) NOTE: IN THE SET OF PLANS REVIEWED THERE ARE SEVERAL |
| | SHEETS WHICH WERE SIGNED AND DATED HOWEVER THEY ARE |
| | MISSING THE REQUIRED RAISED SEAL PER FS 471.025 AND FAC |
| | 61G15-23.002. |
| | MANY OF THESE SHEETS ARE NOT ELECTRICAL IN NATURE |
| | HOWEVER THIS IS GIVEN AS A BENEFIT FOR INFORMATION. |
| | SHEETS: CU1.1,1.3,1.4,1.5 , CP 1.1,1.2, 1.4 AND 1.6 |

| | REQUIRED. |
| | FS 481.221, 471.025 |
| | |
| | 4) NOTE: ANY * LOCK OFF* TYPE OF BREAKERS ON THIS |
| | PROJECT SHALL HAVE THE LOCK OFF DEVICE BE AN INTEGRAL |
| | PART OF THE BREAKER. MOST OF THE CLIP ON OR SNAP ON |
| | TYPE DEVICES ARE NOT LISTED FOR PERMANENT INSTALLATION. |
| | PLEASE MAKE NOTE ON PLANS FOR THE TYPE OF BREAKERS |
| | REQUIRED. THE DIVISION SPECIFICATIONS WERE NOT CLEAR TO |
| | THE ACTUAL TYPE OF DEVICE INTENDED. |
| | 110.3 |
| | FBC 106.1.1, 106.1.2 FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND |
| | CLARITY. |
| | |
| | 5) NOTE: THE RISER CLEARLY INDICATES A CONNECTION OF A |
| | PORTABLE GENERATOR WITHOUT ANY FAIL SAFE OPERATION OF A |
| | TRANSFER SWITCH OF DEVICE OF SOME SORT. THIS |
| | INSTALLATION DOES NOT MEET 702.6. THE PROPOSED KIRK KEY |
| | INTERLOCK IS NOT A LISTED TRANSFER SWITCH OR DEVICE. IT |
| | ALSO DOES NOT PROVIDE FAIL SAFE OPERATION. PLEASE BE |
| | AWARE THAT INSTALLATION OF THIS TYPE OF DEVICE MAY ALSO |
| | VOID LISTING AND OR WARRANTY OF EQUIPMENT. |
| | 110.3 |
| | THIS COMMENT IS WITH RESPECT TO ALL PANELS AND ALL |
| | EQUIPMENT ON RISER WHICH INDICATE THIS SAME KIRK KEY |
| | INTERLOCK SYSTEM. |
| | THE INSTALLATION OF A PORTABLE GENERATOR WITH OUT THE |
| | USE OF TRANSFER EQUIPMENT MAY BE PART OF THE EXCEPTION. |
| | PLEASE PROVIDE AN ORIGINAL NOTARIZED LETTER FROM THE |
| | RESPONSIBLE AUTHORITY WHICH STATES THIS ENTIRE SCOPE OF |
| | WORK WILL ONLY BE DONE BY *QUALIFIED PERSONNEL* PER THE |
| | DEFINITIONS IN THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE ARTICLE |
| | 100. THIS DOES NOT NEGATE THE FIRST PART OF THIS NOTE |

| | OTHER HAZARDS. |
| | |

| | GROUND FAULT PROTECTION OF MAINS PER 240.13 AND 230.95. |
| | |
| | 7) NOTE: PLEASE ALSO PROVIDE NOTES OR INFORMATION ON |
| | ALL MAINS. THE RISER LENDS TO THE FACT BOTH OF THESE |
| | ARE SHUNT TRIP HOWEVER DO BOTH OF THESE STILL CONTAIN |
| | THE REQUIRED MANUAL MEANS OF DISCONNECT RATED FOR THE |
| | LOAD SERVED PER 230.76 AND 230.79? |
| | IF ACTUAL LISTING IS PROVIDED THIS MAY ALSO HELP ANSWER |
| | QUESTION. |
| | |
| | 8) NOTE: PLEASE PROVIDE INFORMATION ON TRANSFORMERS AS |
| | THE OVER CURRENT PROTECTION IS EXCEEDING THE MAXIMUM |
| | 125% BASED ON 450.3. |
| | IF MEETING NOTES IN TABLES, TYPE OF UNIT NEEDS TO BE |
| | VERIFIED AND STATED ON PLANS. IF NOT MEETING NOTES ON |
| | TABLE 450.3 THE MAXIMUM OVER CURRENT PROTECTION SHALL |
| | BE 125%. |
| | |
| | 9) NOTE: PLEASE VERIFY ALL TRANSFORMER LOCATIONS FOR |
| | LENGTH OF TAPPED CONDUCTORS PER 240.21. THE TAP RULES |
| | ARE BASED ON THE LENGTH OF CONDUCTORS AND AS SOME SEEM |
| | TO PERHAPS BE LOCATED SO THE LENGTHS ARE OVER THE |
| | ALLOWANCES IN THE SECTION NOTED, THIS NEEDS TO BE |
| | VERIFIED AT THIS TIME. |

| | ** IMPORTANT ** |
| | ONCE AUDIT/REVIEWS ARE COMPLETE AND PLANS ARE PICKED UP |

| | 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. |
