| | THIS REVIEW WAS DONE UNDER THESE CURRENT CODE CYCLES: |
| | |
| | THE 2004 FLORIDA RESIDENTIAL BUILDING CODE, 2007 |
| | REVISIONS, 2005 NEC, 2004 FBC AS AMENDED, CHAPTER 1.AND |
| | FOUND NONCOMPLIANT WITH THE FOLLOWING: |
| | |
| | 1} THE VALUE ON THE APPLICATION MUST INCLUDE THE TOTAL |
| | COST OF LABOR AND MATERIAL. VALUATION REFERENCES MAY |
| | INCLUDE THE LATEST PUBLISHED DATA OF NATIONAL |
| | CONSTRUCTION COST ANALYSIS SERVICES PER 108.3 FBC AS |
| | AMENDED. A PERMIT SHALL NOT BE ISSUED UNTIL FEES |
| | AUTHORIZED UNDER SECTION 553.80, FLORIDA STATUTES, HAVE |
| | BEEN PAID. 108.1 FBC. ADJUST THE VALUE AT THE PERMIT |
| | CLERK???S DESK, AND PAY THE DIFFERENCE IN FEES PRIOR TO |
| | RESUBMITTING. |
| | |
| | 2} THIS PROJECT MUST COMPLY WITH CHAPTER 13 FBC. 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 TO CORRELATE WITH THE ONES IN THE |
| | CALCULATIONS. |
| | |
| | 3} PLEASE PROVIDE A PANEL SCHEDULE SO THAT |
| | BRANCH/FEEDER CIRCUIT CONDUCTOR AND OVER CURRENT |
| | PROTECTION COMPLIANCE MAY BE REVIEWED PER 408.4 NEC, |
| | 106.3.5.4 FBC AS AMENDED. |
| | |
| | 4} PER 220.43 (A) SHOW WINDOWS FOR SHOW-WINDOW |
| | LIGHTING, A LOAD OF NOT LESS THAN 660 |
| | VOLT-AMPERES/LINEAR METER OR 200 VOLT-AMPERES/LINEAR |
| | FOOT SHALL BE INCLUDED FOR A SHOW WINDOW, MEASURED |
| | HORIZONTALLY ALONG ITS BASE. |
| | |
| | 5} PER 220.42(B) TRACK LIGHTING FOR TRACK LIGHTING IN |
| | OTHER THAN DWELLING UNITS OR GUEST ROOMS OR GUEST |
| | SUITES OF HOTELS OR MOTELS, AN ADDITIONAL LOAD OF 150 |
| | VOLT-AMPERES SHALL BE INCLUDED FOR EVERY 600 MM (2 FT) |
| | OF LIGHTING TRACK OR FRACTION THEREOF. WHERE |
| | MULTICIRCUIT TRACK IS INSTALLED, THE LOAD SHALL BE |
| | CONSIDERED TO BE DIVIDED EQUALLY BETWEEN THE TRACK |
| | CIRCUITS. |
| | |
| | 6} 220.14 (F) SIGN AND OUTLINE LIGHTING SIGN AND |
| | OUTLINE LIGHTING OUTLETS SHALL BE CALCULATED AT A |
| | MINIMUM OF 1200 VOLT-AMPERES FOR EACH REQUIRED BRANCH |
| | CIRCUIT SPECIFIED IN 600.5(A). |
| | THE PERSON TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DESIGN MUST |
| | PRINT AND SIGN THEIR NAME TO SAME, ALL SHEETS, PER |
| | 106.1. |
| | |
| | 7} 220.14(I) RECEPTACLE OUTLETS EXCEPT AS COVERED IN |
| | 220.14(J) AND (K), RECEPTACLE OUTLETS SHALL BE |
| | CALCULATED AT NOT LESS THAN 180 VOLT-AMPERES FOR EACH |
| | SINGLE OR FOR EACH MULTIPLE RECEPTACLE ON ONE YOKE. A |
| | SINGLE PIECE OF EQUIPMENT CONSISTING OF A MULTIPLE |
| | RECEPTACLE COMPRISED OF FOUR OR MORE RECEPTACLES SHALL |
| | BE CALCULATED AT NOT LESS THAN 90 VOLT-AMPERES PER |
| | RECEPTACLE. THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT BE APPLICABLE TO |
| | THE RECEPTACLE OUTLETS SPECIFIED IN 210.11(C)(1) AND |
| | (C)(2). |
| | |
| | 8} 220.18 MAXIMUM LOADS |
| | THE TOTAL LOAD SHALL NOT EXCEED THE RATING OF THE |
| | BRANCH CIRCUIT, AND IT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM |
| | LOADS SPECIFIED IN 220.18(A) THROUGH (C) UNDER THE |
| | CONDITIONS SPECIFIED THEREIN. |
| | (A) MOTOR-OPERATED AND COMBINATION LOADS WHERE A |
| | CIRCUIT SUPPLIES ONLY MOTOR-OPERATED LOADS, ARTICLE 430 |
| | SHALL APPLY. WHERE A CIRCUIT SUPPLIES ONLY |
| | AIR-CONDITIONING EQUIPMENT, REFRIGERATING EQUIPMENT, OR |
| | BOTH, ARTICLE 440 SHALL APPLY. FOR CIRCUITS SUPPLYING |
| | LOADS CONSISTING OF MOTOR-OPERATED UTILIZATION |
| | EQUIPMENT THAT IS FASTENED IN PLACE AND HAS A MOTOR |
| | LARGER THAN 1/ 8HP IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER LOADS, THE |
| | TOTAL CALCULATED LOAD SHALL BE BASED ON 125 PERCENT OF |
| | THE LARGEST MOTOR LOAD PLUS THE SUM OF THE OTHER LOADS. |
| | |
| | 9} 215.2(A)(1) GENERAL FEEDER CONDUCTORS SHALL HAVE AN |
| | AMPACITY NOT LESS THAN REQUIRED TO SUPPLY THE LOAD AS |
| | CALCULATED IN PARTS III, IV, AND V OF ARTICLE 220. THE |

| | APPLICATION OF ANY ADJUSTMENT OR CORRECTION FACTORS, |
| | SHALL HAVE AN ALLOWABLE AMPACITY NOT LESS THAN THE |
| | NONCONTINUOUS LOAD PLUS 125 PERCENT OF THE CONTINUOUS |
| | LOAD.*** NO CONTINUOS LOADS SHOWN IN THE CALCULATION |
| | |
