| | |
| | 1) NOTE: PLEASE INDICATE THE AIC RATINGS FOR NEW |
| | MAINS/SERVICE EQUIPMENT PER 110.9. |
| | |
| | 2) NOTE: PLEASE SEE NEC 210.52C2, 210.8A6 AS THERE IS A |
| | MINIMUM OF ONE GFI RECEPTACLE REQUIRED AT ISLAND IN |
| | KITCHEN INSIDE UNIT #1. |
| | |
| | 3) NOTE: PLEASE SEE PANEL SCHEDULES FOR BOTH UNITS. |
| | BOTH INDICATE ELECTRIC WATER HEATERS HOWEVER THE |
| | ELECTRICAL PLANS DO NOT INDICATE ANY LOCATION OF THESE |
| | UNITS. THE PLUMBING PLANS ALSO DID NOT SHOW LOCATIONS. |
| | PLANS MISSING LOCATION OF THESE UNITS AND DISCONNECTS |
| | REQUIRED PER 422.30,31. |
| | |
| | 4) NOTE: PLEASE SEE NOTE #3 ABOVE AS THE WATER HEATERS |
| | ARE LISTED ON PANEL SCHEDULES HOWEVER THERE ARE NO |
| | WATER HEATER LOADS FIGURED IN THE LOAD CALCULATIONS. |
| | THESE ARE NOT FIGURED INTO EITHER OF THE TWO UNITS. |
| | AS THE ACTUAL KW RATING OF EITHER WATER HEATER IS NOT |
| | SHOWN, THE OVER CURRENT PROTECTION AND CONDUCTOR SIZES |
| | CAN NOT BE VERIFIED AS CODE COMPLIANT. |
| | PLEASE SEE 422.13 AS STORAGE TYPE WATER HEATERS ARE |
| | CONSIDERED A CONTINUOUS LOAD AND LOAD IS REQUIRED TO BE |
| | FIGURED AND SHOWN AT 125%. |
| | |
| | 5) NOTE: PLEASE SEE 210.52B1, 210.11C1 AND 220.52. |
| | THE SECTIONS NOTED REQUIRE A MINIMUM OF TWO SMALL |
| | APPLIANCE CIRCUITS AND REQUIRES EACH OF THESE TO BE |
| | FIGURED AT 1500VA. THAT MEANS EACH OF THE SMALL |
| | APPLIANCE CIRCUITS SHALL BE 1500VA. THE CODE REQUIRES |
| | TWO MINIMUM. UNIT #1 INDICATES THREE SMALL APPLIANCE |
| | CIRCUITS YET THE LOAD CALCULATIONS ONLY INDICATES TWO |
| | FIGURED. |
| | IN UNIT #2, THE PANEL SCHEDULE ALSO INDICATES THREE |
| | SMALL APPLIANCE CIRCUITS YET THE LOAD CALCULATIONS ONLY |
| | FIGURES ONE INTO THE LOADS. |
| | PLEASE SEE SECTIONS AS NOTE AS EACH OF THESE WOULD |
| | REQUIRE THE 1500VA. THIS WOULD BE 4500VA IN EACH LOAD |
| | CALCULATION. |
| | |
| | 6) NOTE: PLEASE SEE WALL SPACES WHICH ARE OVER 2FT IN |
| | UNIT #1 IN EACH OF THE BEDROOMS OFF OF DINING ROOM. |
| | THESE ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE RECEPTACLES PER 210.52. |
| | |
| | 7) NOTE: PLEASE SEE 440.11,440.12 AND 440.14. |
| | DISCONNECTS ARE REQUIRED FOR EACH OF THE CONDENSING |
| | UNITS. BASED ON SYMBOL LEGEND THESE ARE ONLY INDICATED |
| | AS OUTLETS. THESE LOCATIONS ARE ALSO SHOWN BEHIND UNITS |
| | NOT MEETING 110.26 FOR MINIMUM CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS. |
| | THIS WOULD TYPICALLY BE REDLINED HOWEVER PLANS NEED |
| | CORRECTIONS FOR OTHER ITEMS. |
| | |
| | 8) NOTE: PLEASE SEE CLOSET LIGHT IN MASTER BEDROOM OF |
| | UNIT #1. THE LIGHT IS TOO CLOSE TO SHELF AS SHOWN. |
| | PLEASE SEE 410.8 OF THE NEC AND RELOCATE FIXTURE. |
| | THIS WOULD ALSO TYPICALLY BE REDLINED HOWEVER NEEDS TO |
| | BE ADJUSTED AT THIS TIME. |
| | |
| | 9) NOTE: PLEASE SEE 408.4, EACH OF THE GENERAL LIGHTING |
| | AND GENERAL RECEPTACLE CIRCUITS ON PANEL SCHEDULE AT |
| | SOME POINT ARE REQUIRED TO BE UPDATED TO SPECIFIC ROOMS |
| | AND LOCATIONS IN WHICH THEY FEED. THE USE OF GENERAL |
| | LIGHTS ETC IS NOT PERMITTED. SEE CODE COMMENTARY WHICH |
| | IS COPIED BELOW. |
| | |
| | SECTION 408.4 WAS REVISED FOR THE 2005 CODE TO REQUIRE |
| | THAT THE IDENTIFICATION FOR EVERY CIRCUIT SUPPLIED BY A |
| | PANELBOARD 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. |
| | |
| | |
| | 10) NOTE: PANEL SCHEDULES FOR BOTH UNITS INDICATES THE |
| | CIRCUITS FOR BATHROOM AS * BATH CIRCUITS*. THIS IMPLIES |
| | MORE THAN ONE BATHROOM ON THE SAME CIRCUIT FOR LIGHTING |
| | AND RECEPTACLES. |
| | PLEASE SEE 210.52D, 210.11C3 AS THERE IS TWO WAYS |
| | BATHROOMS ARE PERMITTED TO BE WIRED. ONE WAY IS THE GFI |
| | RECEPTACLES ARE ALL ON THE SAME 20AMP #12 CIRCUITS |
| | HOWEVER ONLY THE GFI RECEPTACLES ARE PERMITTED ON THE |
| | CIRCUIT. THE OTHER IS THE GFI AND LIGHTS, FANS ETC MAY |
| | BE ON THE CIRCUIT HOWEVER IT IS NOT PERMITTED TO FEED |
| | OTHER BATHROOMS. EACH WOULD HAVE THE DEDICATED 20AMP, |
| | #12 CIRCUITS. |
| | PLEASE ADJUST PLANS/PANEL SCHEDULE AS REQUIRED. |
| | |
| | 11) NOTE: THE PANEL SCHEDULES FOR EACH OF THE TWO UNITS |
| | INDICATES A BRANCH CIRCUIT FOR A SPRINKLER SYSTEM YET |
| | THE PLANS DO NOT SHOW ANY LOCATIONS FOR THE PUMPS AND |
| | DISCONNECTING MEANS PER 430.102 |
| | |
| | 12) NOTE: ** INFORMATION ONLY **BOTH UNITS INDICATE |
| | DISPOSALS HOWEVER ONLY UNIT #1 INDICATES A SWITCH FOR |
| | CONTROL OF DISPOSAL. IT IS PERMITTED TO HAVE SELF |
| | ACTUATED DISPOSAL UNITS HOWEVER THIS IS BEING NOTED FOR |
| | INFORMATION ONLY. IF INDEED UNIT #2 HAS A SWITCH TO |
| | CONTROL DISPOSAL THEN PLEASE UPDATE PLANS. |
| | ** INFORMATION COMMENT ONLY. |
| | |
| | 13) NOTE: ** INFORMATION ONLY **SERVICE ENTRANCE |
| | CONDUCTORS ARE SIZED FOR A 700AMP SERVICE PER 310.15B6. |
| | VERIFY AS THE SERVICE SHOWN IS 300AMPS. THIS IS NOT A |
| | CODE VIOLATION HOWEVER IF SHOWN ON PLANS THESE WOULD BE |
| | REQUIRED TO BE INSTALLED. |
| | ** THIS MAY ALSO CHANGE GROUNDING ELECTRODE CONDUCTOR? |
| | |
| | 14) NOTE: RISER INDICATES NO GROUND RODS FOR SERVICE |
| | GROUNDING ELECTRODE SYSTEM. RISER STATES TO CONCRETE |
| | ENCASED ELECTRODE. |
| | PLEASE SEE 250.50, CONCRETE ENCASED ELECTRODE MUST MEET |
| | MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS OF 20FT LONG ETC. THIS IS AN |
| | EXISTING STRUCTURE WHICH WOULD NOT REQUIRED THE |
| | EXISTING FOUNDATION TO BE EXCAVATED OR *CHIP* OUT |
| | EXISTING TO POSSIBLY LOCATE FOOTER STEEL. THIS WOULD |
| | ACTUALLY AFFECT THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF EXISTING |
| | FOOTINGS. |
| | PLEASE SEE 250.53,250.56, 250.52A5 AS IT WOULD REQUIRE |
| | A MINIMUM OF TWO GROUND RODS AND COLD WATER PIPE AS |
| | LISTED. |
| | |
| | |
| | ** PLEASE REVISE PLANS BEFORE ROUGH ALONG WITH ANY |
| | OTHER REVISIONS |
| | |
| | **IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS; OR IF COMMENTS ARE NOT |
| | TYPED IN A CLEAR MANNER PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO |
| | CONTACT THIS REVIEWER. |
