PART 3. - EXECUTION
3.1 GENERAL WIRING METHODS
A. General Requirements:
1. Provide 12 AWG or larger conductors for power and lighting circuits.
2. Provide 10 AWG conductors for 20 ampere, 120 volt branch circuit home runs
longer than 100 feet and for 20 ampere. All 120v circuits shall have dedicated
neutral conductors.
3. Place an equal number of conductors for each phase of a circuit in same
raceway or cable.
4. Conductors shall be tested to be continuous and free from shorts and grounds.
5. Neatly install, organize, and lace wiring inside boxes, equipment, and
panelboards.
6. Conductor lengths for parallel circuits shall be equal.
7. Provide a minimum of twelve inches of slack conductor at each outlet.
3.2 WIRING INSTALLATION IN RACEWAYS
A. General Requirements:
1. Pull all conductors into a raceway at the same time. Use Underwriters’
Laboratories (UL) listed wire pulling lubricant for pulling No. 4 AWG and larger
wires.
2. Completely and thoroughly swab raceway system before installing conductors.
3. Control and communication conductors shall be installed in separate, dedicated
raceway systems.
3.3 WIRING CONNECTIONS AND TERMINATIONS
A. General Requirements:
1. Splices shall only occur in accessible junction boxes. Splices in conductors
installed below grade are not permitted
2. Wires shall be thoroughly cleaned prior to installing Iugs and connectors.
3. Splices, taps and terminations shall be made to carry full ampacity of conductors
without perceptible temperature rise.
4. Spare conductors shall be terminated with electrical tape and tagged “spare”
