| | ** DENIED * |
| | |
| | ** SOME ITEMS FROM PREVIOUS REVIEW STILL NEED TO BE |
| | ADDRESSED. |
| | THERE ARE SEVERAL NEW COMMENTS BASED ON REVISED PLANS |
| | SUBMITTED. THE INFORMATION ON PREVIOUS PLANS WAS NOT |
| | THE SAME AS THE PLANS NOW SUBMITTED. NEW COMMENTS ARE |
| | BASED ON CHANGES NOW ABLE TO BE REVIEWED. |
| | |
| | 1) NOTE: THIS IS NOTED FOR INFORMATION. SEE COMMENTS |
| | FROM OTHER TRADES. SHEET A1.01 IS NOT SIGNED, DATED OR |
| | SEALED IN EITHER SET SUBMITTED. THIS IS REQUIRED UNDER |
| | FS 481.221. THE ARCHITECT OF RECORD MAY PERSONALLY |
| | APPEAR TO SIGN AND SEAL PLANS. A TIME SHOULD BE SET UP |
| | WITH STAFF. THIS SHOULD BE NOTED BY OTHER TRADES. |
| | |
| | 2 ) NOTE: COVER SHEET HAS A CONFLICT IN CODES. ONE ARE |
| | INDICATES A 2007 NEC AND THE OTHER 2005. THIS CAN BE |
| | RELINED AS THERE WAS NO 2007 CODE. ALL APPLICATIONS FOR |
| | PERMIT BEFORE OCTOBER 1ST, 2009 AND AFTER DECEMBER 8TH, |
| | 2006 ARE UNDER THE 2005 NEC. |
| | NO NFPA-101 LISTED. THIS SHOULD BE 2006 AS NOTED ON |
| | PREVIOUS REVIEW. |
| | |
| | 3) NOTE: THE NEWLY SUBMITTED LIGHTING PERFORMANCE |
| | CALCULATIONS NOW SUBMITTED FOR NEW INTERIOR AND |
| | EXTERIOR LIGHTING. HOWEVER PLEASE SEE PLANS AS THEY |
| | INDICATE THE 2004 FLORIDA BUILDING CODE WITH 2006 |
| | SUPPLEMENTS. |
| | AFTER MARCH 1ST 2009, THE LIGHTING PERFORMANCE |
| | CALCULATIONS ARE REQUIRED TO BE DONE PER 13-415.AB.5 |
| | FOR INTERIOR AND 13-415.AB.2.2 FOR EXTERIOR UNDER THE |
| | 2007 FBC W/ 2009 SUPPLEMENTS. THERE WERE SUBSTANTIAL |
| | CHANGES MADE TO CHAPTER 13, IN FACT THE ENTIRE CHAPTER |
| | WAS REVISED. |
| | A FIXTURE SCHEDULE WAS NOT SUBMITTED THEREFORE LIGHTING |
| | ON PLANS AND CALCULATIONS CAN NOT BE VERIFIED. PLEASE |
| | SUBMIT. ( IT CAN ALWAYS BE REVISED AT A LATER DATE IF |
| | FIXTURES CHANGE) |
| | ** THE LIGHTING SHOWN ON ARCHITECTURAL PLANS FOR WALLS |
| | IS MORE THAN THE LIGHTING SHOWN ON THE ELECTRICAL |
| | PLANS. ( SCONCES AS ONE EXAMPLE) |
| | |
| | 4) NOTE: THE NEWLY SUBMITTED LIGHTING PLANS DOES NOT |
| | INDICATE LIGHTING CONTROL DETAIL. HOW WILL OCCUPANCY |
| | SENSORS BE USED TO MEET FBC 13-415.AB.1.1,.1.2 AND |
| | .1.3. LINE VOLTAGE? LOW VOLTAGE? THE SYMBOL LEGEND ONLY |
| | INDICATES AN OCCUPANCY SENSOR. |
| | THERE IS A SWITCH AT THE REAR DOOR FOR KITCHEN LIGHTING |
| | AND ALSO CEILING INDICATES AN OC SENSOR HOWEVER IT IS |
| | UNCLEAR HOW THIS WILL BE DONE. THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS |
| | OF INSTALLATION HOWEVER WITHOUT DETAILS WHICH CAN BE |
| | TYPICAL IT IS UNCLEAR AT THIS TIME. SEVERAL LIGHTING |
| | MANUFACTURE CONTAIN TYPICAL WIRING DETAILS ON THEIR |
| | WEBSITE WHICH CAN BE USED. |
| | STANDARD SINGLE POLE SWITCHES ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE AS |
| | THERE ARE SOME SHOWN ON PLANS. PLEASE ALSO SEE .1.3 OF |
| | THE4 SECTION NOTED AS SEPARATE CONTROLS REQUIRED. |
| | EXTERIOR LIGHTING DOES INDICATE A PC FOR PHOTO-CELL. |
| | |
| | 5) NOTE: A COMPLETELY NEW SERVICE RISER WAS SUBMITTED |
| | AND THERE ARE COMMENTS BELOW. THERE IS ITEMS INDICATED |
| | ON RISER WHICH ARE NOT CLEAR. |
| | |
| | A) SERVICE SIZE SHOWN FEEDING GUTTER TO PANEL *A* AND |
| | *B* IS SHOWN ON PLANS AS A 200AMP METER/MAIN COMBO. HOW |
| | IS THIS POSSIBLE WHEN THE LOAD ON THE CALCULATIONS FAR |
| | EXCEED THE RATING OF THIS SERVICE EQUIPMENT? |
| | ALL SERVICES SERVICE CONDUCTORS ARE TO BE RATED TO THE |
| | SIZE OF THE SERVICE PROVIDED AND THE LOAD SERVED. |
| | 230.70,230.70,230.90,230.76,230.79 ETC. |
| | |
| | B) THE RISER INDICATES SEVERAL DIFFERENT LABELS TO |
| | EXISTING CONDUCTORS ETC HOWEVER IT IS UNCLEAR WHICH |
| | CONDUCTORS IS FOR WHICH SERVICE, RISER, AND CONDUCTOR. |
| | SEE RISER, JUST ABOVE THE METER MAIN COMBO THERE IS A |
| | NOTE FOR EXISTING CONDUCTORS FOR 3-3/0 AND 1-#6. WHAT |
| | IS THIS FOR? THE SERVICE EQUIPMENT JUST TO THE LEFT |
| | ALREADY INDICATES CONDUCTORS. |
| | IF THIS IS FOR RISER TO 200AMP METER/MAIN COMBO THE |
| | CONDUCTORS ARE NOT SUFFICIENT FOR SERVICE SIZE. |
| | IF THIS IS FOR RISER TO 200AMP METER/MAIN COMBO THE |
| | RISER INDICATES AND * EQUIPMENT GROUNDING CONDUCTOR* |
| | BEFORE THE FIRST MEANS OF DISCONNECT WHICH IS NOT |
| | PERMITTED. PLEASE SEE 250.6 AND 250.24 AS THIS WOULD |
| | PARALLEL THE NEUTRAL CREATING OBJECTIONABLE CURRENT. |
| | |
| | C) THE RISER JUST BELOW THE SERVICE METER/MAIN COMBO |
| | INDICATES EXISTING #2 AND EXISTING 1/0 HOWEVER THESE |
| | ARE GOING TO ANYTHING. WHAT ARE THESE FOR? |
| | |
| | D) THE LOAD CALCULATIONS FOR PANEL *B* INDICATES LOAD |
| | AT 196.4 AMPS AND NOTES THAT A 225AMP SERVICE IS |
| | SUFFICIENT. THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE WHEN THE MAIN FEEDING |
| | THIS SAME 225AMP MLO IS SHOWN ON RISER TO BE 200AMPS. |
| | THE SERVICE IS 200AMPS WHICH PLACES THIS LOAD OF 196 |
| | AMP VERY CLOSE TO THE MAXIMUM RATING OF A 200AMP |
| | BREAKER. |
| | 240.4, 230.76, 230.79, 230.70, 230.71, 215.5, ETC |
| | |
| | E) THE RISER DOES ALSO LIST 350MCM FOR SOMETHING |
| | HOWEVER EVEN IF THESE ARE THE SIZE CONDUCTORS IN |
| | GUTTER, THE SERVICE IS ONLY 200AMPS. THE SERVICE WILL |
| | BE REQUIRED TO BE UPGRADED. THE LOADS ALONE ARE 313 |
| | PLUS AMPS AND 350MCM IS RATED FOR 310. THE CONDUCTORS |
| | ARE NOT SUFFICIENT.310.16, 110.14 |
| | |
| | F) THE LOADS ON THE SERVICE ARE TO BE REVISED. WHERE |
| | ARE THE LOADS ON PANEL *A* FOR EXTERIOR LIGHTING? ALL |
| | CONTINUOUS LOADS INCLUDING LOADS ON EXTERIOR LIGHTING |
| | IS TO BE SHOWN AT 125%. |
| | THE LOAD FOR LIGHTING IS SHOWN AT 2VA PER SQ FT. IT IS |
| | NOT PERMITTED TO USE THE 2VA PER SQ FT IF THE ACTUAL |
| | LIGHTING LOAD IS HIGHER. THE LIGHTING FIXTURE LEGEND |
| | WAS SUBMITTED SO THIS CAN NOT BE CONFIRMED WHICH LOAD |
| | IS GREATER. |
| | NO TRACK LIGHTING LOADS ARE SHOWN? |
| | NO SHOW WINDOW LOADS ARE SHOWN? IF THERE IS WINDOW AREA |
| | ABOVE DOORS RECEPTACLES WILL BE REQUIRED. THE INTENT OF |
| | 210.62 IS THAT QUITE OFTEN SIGNS ARE HUNG IN THESE |
| | AREAS. |
| | THE LOAD SHOWN FOR RECEPTACLES IS LESS THAN WHAT IS |
| | ACTUALLY ON PLANS. PLEASE SEE SECTIONS GIVEN FOR THE |
| | 180VA PER RECEPTACLE. THE CALCULATIONS INDICATE 10, |
| | HOWEVER THERE ARE MORE CONVENIENCE OUTLETS ON PLANS. |
| | PLEASE SEE 220.12, 220.14, 220.42, AND 220.43. ETC |
| | |
| | 6) NOTE: PLEASE SEE 210.8B2 AS ALL 15 AND 20AMP, 120V |
| | RECEPTACLES IN KITCHEN AREAS SHALL BE GFI/GFI |
| | PROTECTED. THIS IS REQUIRED WHETHER OR THESE ARE |
| | FEEDING COUNTER SPACE LOCATIONS. |
| | THERE IS NO GFI PROTECTION ON PANEL SCHEDULES OR ON |
| | PLANS. |
| | THIS INCLUDES BAR AREA RECEPTACLES. 210.8B3 |
| | |
| | 7) NOTE: PLEASE SEE 408.4 REVISED UNDER THE 2005 CODE. |
| | IT IS NOT PERMITTED TO USE *GENERAL LIGHTING OR GENERAL |
| | RECCEPTACLES * TO DESCRIBE CIRCUITING. THESE ARE |
| | REQUIRED TO BE SPECIFIC TO ROOMS AND AREAS IN WHICH |
| | THEY FEED. THIS MAY BE DONE PART OF A PROVISO TO BE |
| | REVISED AND SUBMITTED BEFORE FINAL. SEE CODE COMMENTARY |
| | IN THE HANDBOOK WHICH PROVIDES INFORMATION. RECORD |
| | PLANS NEED TO CONTAIN SPECIFIC INFORMATION/DETAIL. |
| | |
| | |
| | IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS; OR IF COMMENTS ARE NOT |
| | TYPED IN A CLEAR MANNER PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO |
| | CONTACT THIS REVIEWER. |
