2009-09-09 17:03:43** PROVISO **
  
 ** ALL OF THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS NEED TO BE ADDRESSED
 BEFORE ANY ROUGH ELECTRICAL INSPECTIONS. A MEETING WAS
 HELD WITH CONTRACTOR/OWNER TO GO OVER ALL NOTES. MR.
 ALONSO IS AWARE OF HOLD WHICH WILL BE PLACED ON
 INSPECTIONS.
  
 1) NOTE: PLEASE SUBMIT LIGHTING PERFORMANCE
 CALCULATIONS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE * MINIMUM* FOR THE
 FBC 13-415.AB.5. A NEW FORM B WAS SUBMITTED HOWEVER
 WHEN USING A FORM B FOR MINIMUM PRESCRIPTIVE YOU WOULD
 USE ONE FOR EACH *SPACE TYPE*. NOT ONE FORM WHEN YOU
 HAVE MULTIPLE SPACES PER TABLE 13-415.B.1. AT THE
 REQUEST OF CONTRACTOR, FORM B WAS REMOVED FROM PLANS.
 PRESCRIPTIVE TO BE SUBMITTED FOR INTERIOR LIGHTING.
  
 SEE 13-415.AB.2.2 FOR EXTERIOR, NOTHING SHOWN. BASE DON
 THE PLANS SUBMITTED THE FIXTURES SHOWN WILL NOT EXCEED
 ALLOWANCES HOWEVER PLANS ( SIGN CIRCUIT IS NOT
 INCLUDED, EXEMPT).
 THE SPACE TYPE AS LISTED ON THE FORM B SUBMITTED STATES
 * FLUORESCENT*. HOW CAN THE SPACE TYPE BE FLUORESCENT?
 THIS WOULD BE LISTED UNDER FIXTURE TYPE FOR EACH SPACE.
 PART OF THE LIGHTING SPACE BY SPACE IS BEING SHOWN ON
 PLANS HOWEVER DUE TO THE INCONSISTENCIES ON THE FIXTURE
 LEGEND. CODE COMPLIANCE IS NOT SHOWN. IN FACT BASED ON
 SOME OF THE FIXTURE INFORMATION THE MAXIMUM LIGHTING
 ALLOWANCE LEVELS ARE EXCEEDED.
 SOME EXAMPLES WILL BE GIVEN.
  
 FOR EXAMPLE: FIXTURE TYPE *A* IS SHOWN AS 3-32W WITH AN
 OVER ALL AT 107WATTS DUE TO THE BALLAST POWER FACTOR.
 HOWEVER PLEASE SEE *LAMP TYPE LISTING ON THE FIXTURE
 TABLE. THIS CLEARLY STATES THERE WILL BE (4)-F32 W
 BULBS. PER CONTRACTOR THE FIXTURE WHICH IS GOING TO BE
 USED WILL NOT CONTAIN (4) F32.
  
 FOR EXAMPLE: THE SAME IS NOTED FOR FIXTURE B AS NOTED
 FOR FIXTURE *A*. THE LAMP LEGEND INDICATES (4) F32W
 BULBS. PER CONTRACTOR THE FIXTURE WHICH IS GOING TO BE
 USED WILL NOT CONTAIN (4) F32.
  
 FOR EXAMPLE: PLEASE SEE FIXTURE TYPE *D* WHICH STATES
 IT IS AN INCANDESCENT FIXTURE YET ALSO STATES IT IS A
 RECESSED FLUORESCENT DOWN LIGHT.
  
 THE COMMENT REMAINS TO CALL IF THERE ARE QUESTIONS.
  
  
 2) NOTE: PLEASE SEE COMMENT FROM PREVIOUS REVIEW WHICH
 REQUIRED LIGHTING CONTROLS IN SPECIFIC ROOMS STATED IN
 13-415.AB.1.2 TO MEET THE FBC. AUTOMATED LIGHTING
 CONTROLS WERE ADDED TO ALL OTHER ROOMS EXCEPT THE TWO
 ROOMS AS NOTED IN THE PREVIOUS REVIEW. THE ONLY TWO
 ROOMS IN THIS BUILDING WHICH IS LESS THAN 5K SQ FT THAT
 REQUIRES AUTOMATED LIGHTING CONTROLS IS THE
 KITCHEN/BREAK ROOM AND THE CONFERENCE ROOM.
 THIS WAS GONE OVER WITH CONTRACTOR. PLANS WILL BE
 REVISED.
  
 ** AS A SIDE NOTE: EVEN THOUGH AUTOMATED LIGHTING
 CONTROLS ARE NOT REQUIRED IN THE OTHER ROOMS, THEY MAY
 CERTAINLY BE INSTALLED AS SHOWN ON PLANS.
  
 3) NOTE: PLEASE SEE PREVIOUS NOTE WITH RESPECT TO
 EXTERIOR LIGHTING CONTROLS. IT WAS NOTED THAT THERE
 WERE EXTERIOR LIGHTS ON SINGLE POLE SWITCHES WHICH WAS
 NOT PERMITTED AS SHOWN. THE PLANS NOW HAVE A NOTE WHICH
 STATES ALL EXTERIOR LIGHTS TO BE ON A TIME CLOCK.
 HOWEVER THE SINGLE POLE SWITCH IS ALSO STILL SHOWN??
 PLEASE KNOW THAT A STANDARD TIME CLOCK DOES NOT MEET
 ONE OF THE TWO ACCEPTABLE METHODS PER 13-415.AB.1.4. IF
 THIS IS GOING TO BE A TIME CLOCK THEN IT MUST BE
 *ASTRONOMICAL TYPE* WITH A MINIMUM OF 10HRS BATTERY
 BACK UP FOR PROGRAMMING.
 ** THIS WAS GONE OVER WITH CONTRACTOR.
  
 4) NOTE: PLEASE SEE PREVIOUS NOTE WITH RESPECT TO WATER
 HEATER LOADS ON STORAGE TYPE OF WATER HEATERS WHICH ARE
 REQUIRED TO BE SHOWN AND FIGURED AT 125%. SEE 422.13.
 THIS TYPE OF LOAD UNDER THE CHANGE IN THE 2005 NEC IS
 NOW CONSIDERED A CONTINUOUS LOAD. ALL CONTINUOUS LOADS
 ARE REQUIRED TO BE SHOWN AT 125%.
 PLEASE SEE THE FOLLOWING TEXT WHICH IS TAKEN DIRECTLY
 FROM THE 2005 NEC HANDBOOK. *** IF THERE ARE QUESTIONS,
 PLEASE CALL.
 ** PLEASE SEE LAST SENTENCE IN NOTES**
  
 **THE REVISION TO 422.13 SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFIES AN
 ELECTRIC WATER HEATER WITH A STORAGE CAPACITY OF 120
 GAL OR LESS AS A CONTINUOUS LOAD. THIS REVISION
 REQUIRES THE BRANCH CIRCUIT OVERCURRENT DEVICE AND
 CONDUCTORS TO BE SIZED BASED ON 125 PERCENT OF THE
 WATER HEATER NAMEPLATE RATING UNLESS THE OVERCURRENT
 DEVICE AND THE ASSEMBLY IT IS INSTALLED IN ARE LISTED
 TO BE USED AT 100 PERCENT OF ITS CONTINUOUS CURRENT
 RATING. IN ADDITION, FEEDERS AND SERVICES THAT SUPPLY
 WATER HEATER BRANCH CIRCUITS ARE ALSO IMPACTED BY THE
 FACT THAT THIS TYPE OF EQUIPMENT IS CONSIDERED TO BE A
 CONTINUOUS LOAD.**
  
 5) NOTE: PLEASE SEE PREVIOUS NOTES WITH RESPECT TO
 MINIMUM LOAD CALCULATIONS REQUIRED TO BE SHOWN FOR A
 COMMERCIAL.
 THE PREVIOUS CALCULATIONS THAT WERE SUBMITTED WERE
 BASED ON RESIDENTIAL USE. THE CALCULATIONS SUBMITTED DO
 NOT MEET NEC. SEE
 220.12,220.14,220.42,220.44,220.56,220.60, 215.3 AND
 230.42. THERE ARE OTHER SECTIONS IN 220.
  
 FOR EXAMPLE:
 THE NEW CALCULATIONS INDICATE RECEPTACLES AT A TOTAL OF
 (4) AND A TOTAL OF 7500VA. THERE ARE MORE THAN 4
 RECEPTACLES.
  
 FOR EXAMPLE; THE TOTAL LIGHTING LOAD IS SHOWN AT
 1014VA. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE WHEN THE LIGHTING LOAD
 SHOWN FOR THE INTERIOR LIGHTING ALONE ON SPACE BY SPACE
 IS 1917VA. ( WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE ACCURATE BASED ON
 FIXTURE LEGEND).
  
 ** PLEASE SEE NOTE ABOVE WITH RESPECT TO LOAD
 CALCULATIONS. WHEN KNOWN LIGHTING LOAD EXCEED THE NEC
 MINIMUM WATTS PER SQUARE FOOT, THEN THE HIGHER MUST BE
 USED.
 ** SEE NOTES ABOVE WITH RESPECT TO WATER HEATER LOAD.
  
 6) NOTE: NEW COMMENT: THE FRONT LOCATION STATES THE *
 EXIT SIGN TO BE ON TIME CLOCK*. THIS WAS GONE OVER WITH
 CONTRACTOR. THIS IS A MISPRINT AND WILL BE CORRECTED.
  
  
 IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS; OR IF COMMENTS ARE NOT
 TYPED IN A CLEAR MANNER PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO
 CONTACT THIS REVIEWER.
