| | PROJECT: PARADELO |
| | PERMIT#: 14080942 |
| | CODE: 2008 EDITION OF THE NEC |
| | 2010 EDITION OF THE FBC |
| | 2010 WPB AMENDMENTS TO THE FBC, CHAPTER 1, |
| | ADMINISTRATION, 2012 FBC SUPPLEMENTS. |
| | |
| | 2ND ELECTRICAL PLAN REVIEW |
| | ACTION: DENIED |
| | |
| | AS CLEARLY INDICATED IN THE PREVIOUS REVIEWS, THE CITY |
| | RECORDS INDICATE THAT THE STRUCTURE SHOWN ON THE |
| | DRAWINGS IS A DETACHED GARAGE. NO RECORDS COULD BE |
| | LOCATED TO INDICATE THE BATHROOM, KITCHEN, OR TANKLESS |
| | GAS WATER HEATER WERE ADDED TO THE GARAGE WITH THE |
| | REQUIRED PERMITS AND INSPECTIONS. SEE BUILDING, |
| | PLUMBING AND ZONING COMMENTS. ASIDE FROM THE BUILDING |
| | AND ZONING COMMENTS, THERE ARE SERVERE DESIGN FLAWS |
| | THROUGHOUT THE ELECTRICAL PLAN SUBMITTED. COSIDER |
| | CONSULTING WITH A DESIGN PROFESSIONAL FOR SOME |
| | ASSISTANCE IN COMPLETING THIS OVERALL DESIGN. |
| | PROVIDED IT IS ALLOWED BY BUILDING, PLUMBING AND ZONING |
| | AND IN ORDER TO MAKE THE CONVERSION MEET CURRENT |
| | ELECTRICAL CODE THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS WOULD NEED TO BE |
| | ADDRESSED: |
| | |
| | 1) SUFFICIENT CLEAR ACCESS AND DEDICATED WORKING SPACE |
| | SHALL BE PROVIDED AND MAINTAINED ABOUT ALL ELECTRICAL |
| | EQUIPMENT TO ALLOW READY AND SAFE OPERATION AND |
| | MAINTENANCE OF SUCH EQUIPMENT. NEC 110.26 THE KITCHEN |
| | COUNTER TOP, REFRIGERATOR, DRYER, AND TANKLESS WATER |
| | HEATER APPEAR TO BE ENCROACHING ON THE REQUIRED WORKING |
| | CLEARANCES DESCRIBED IN THE NEC 110.26. |
| | |
| | 2) THE SERVICE DISCONNECTING MEANS SHALL BE INSTALLED |
| | AT A READILY ACCESSIBLE LOCATION EITHER OUTSIDE OF A |
| | BUILDING OR STRUCTURE OR INSIDE NEAREST THE POINT OF |
| | ENTRANCE OF THE SERVICE CONDUCTORS. NEC 230.70(A)(1) |
| | INDICATE THE LOCATION OF THE ELECTRICAL SERVICE AND THE |
| | FEED TO THE PANEL IN THE GARAGE.THE SUB PANEL AT THE |
| | UTILITY STRUCTURE IS INDICATED TO BE FED FROM THE HOUSE |
| | PANEL WITH A 50AMP BREAKER ON #1 WIRE WITH A 175AMP |
| | TOTAL CONNECTED LOAD INDICATED AT THE SUB PANEL WITH A |
| | 100AMP MAIN BREAKER. |
| | |
| | 3) PROVIDE A REVISED RISER DIAGRAM, LOAD CALCULATION |
| | AND PANEL DIRECTORIES SHOWING COMPLETE FEEDER DETAILS |
| | AREA IN SQUARE FEET OF THE BUILDING, THE TOTAL |
| | CALCULATED LOAD BEFORE APPLYING DEMAND FACTORS, THE |
| | DEMAND FACTORS USED, THE CALCULATED LOAD AFTER APPLYING |
| | DEMAND FACTORS, AND THE SIZE AND TYPE OF CONDUCTORS TO |
| | BE USED. NEC 215.5 THE RISER DIAGRAM SUBMITTED DOES NOT |
| | ADAQUATELY MEET THE MINIMUM DESIGN CRITERIA REQUIRED. |
| | PROVIDE THE GROUNDING ELECTRODE DETAIL, THE UTILITY |
| | METERING, SUBMITTALS ON THE GENERATOR AND MTS, A |
| | REVISED DESIGN IS REQUIRED ON THE RISER TO INDICATE HOW |
| | THE MTS AND GENERATOR WILL PROVIDE OPTIONAL STANDBY |
| | POWER FOR THE SERVICE WITHOUT A BACKFEED. THE LOADS |
| | CALCULATED ON THE PLAN INDICATE A TOTAL OF 415 AMPS |
| | WITH A 200 AMP MAIN AND A 2/0 FEEDER. THE SUB PANEL AT |
| | THE UTILITY STRUCTURE IS INDICATED TO BE FED FROM THE |
| | HOUSE PANEL WITH A 50AMP BREAKER ON #1 WIRE WITH A |
| | 175AMP TOTAL CONNECTED LOAD INDICATED AT THE SUB PANEL. |
| | |
| | 4) EVERY CIRCUIT AND CIRCUIT MODIFICATION SHALL BE |
| | LEGIBLY IDENTIFIED AS TO ITS CLEAR, EVIDENT, AND |
| | SPECIFIC PURPOSE OR USE. NEC 408.4 PROVIDE REVISED |
| | PANEL SCHEDULES.THE PANEL SCHEDULES DO NOT ADAQUATELY |
| | INDICATE ALL REQUIRED CIRCUITRY OR SHOW ALL CIRCUITRY |
| | USED ON THE PLAN. THE PANEL SCHEDULE MUST COINCIDE WITH |
| | THE CIRCUITRY ON THE FLOOR PLAN. NOT ALL CIRCUITS ON |
| | THE FLOOR PLAN ARE INDICATED IN THE PANEL SCHEDULE. |
| | |
| | 5) ALL GROUNDING ELECTRODES AS DESCRIBED IN |
| | 250.52(A)(1) THROUGH (A)(7) THAT ARE PRESENT AT EACH |
| | BUILDING OR STRUCTURE SERVED SHALL BE BONDED TOGETHER |
| | TO FORM THE GROUNDING ELECTRODE SYSTEM. NEC 250.50 |
| | |
| | 6) WHERE INSTALLED IN OR ATTACHED TO A BUILDING OR |
| | STRUCTURE, A METAL PIPING SYSTEM(S), INCLUDING GAS |
| | PIPING, THAT IS LIKELY TO BECOME ENERGIZED SHALL BE |
| | BONDED TO THE SERVICE EQUIPMENT ENCLOSURE, THE GROUNDED |
| | CONDUCTOR AT THE SERVICE, THE GROUNDING ELECTRODE |
| | CONDUCTOR WHERE OF SUFFICIENT SIZE, OR THE ONE OR MORE |
| | GROUNDING ELECTRODES USED NEC 250.104(3)(B) |
| | |
| | 7) THE CONNECTION OF A GROUNDING ELECTRODE CONDUCTOR AT |
| | EACH BUILDING OR STRUCTURE WHERE SUPPLIED BY A |
| | FEEDER(S) OR BRANCH CIRCUIT(S), SHALL BE MADE AS |
| | SPECIFIED 250.32, 250.68(A) AND (B). |
| | |
| | 8) THE VALUE OF THE PROJECT ISN?T REALISTIC AND WILL BE |
