3. HEALTH AND SAFETY
Strictly followed as per the manufacturer's Health and Safety
recommendations for handling and use of the materials.
Ensure all involved personnel shall be aware of the same.
Specific safety measures have to follow as applicable, and all the safety
measures are covered separately in the project safety plan.
4. OPERATION
Material:
Material used will be as approved by the Engineer.
The sizes and routes routing will be as per the approved Shop
Drawings.
Storage and Protection:
Deliver components parts to site, completely identified in accordance
with shop and certified CAD Drawings prepared for this work.
Store in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, above
ground, properly protected from the weather and construction activities.
5. INSTALLATION AND FIXATION
Pre-Installation:
All materials and documentation relevant to this particular section of
works will be checked and verified ensuring that these are correct
and approved type.
Prior to the commencement of works, ensure that the areas for
permanent installation are ready, accessible and in suitable
condition.
Installation:
Install identification devices according to manufacturer's written
instructions.
Install labels where indicated and at locations for best convenience
of viewing without interference with operation and maintenance of
equipment.
Lettering, Colors, and Graphics: Coordinate names, abbreviations,
colors, and other designations used for electrical identification with
corresponding designations used in the Contract Documents or
required by codes and standards. Use consistent designations
throughout the Project.
Sequence of Work: Where identification is to be applied to surfaces
that require finish, install identification after completion of finish
work.
Self-Adhesive Identification Products: Clean surfaces of dust, loose
material, and oily films before applying.
Install Circuit Identification Labels on Boxes: Label externally on
exposed boxes with pressure-sensitive, self-adhesive plastic label
on cover.
Color-Code Conductors: Secondary service, feeder, and branch
circuit conductors throughout the secondary electrical system as
follows:
Tri-phase System: As follows:
o Phase A : Red.
o Phase B : Yellow
o Phase C : Blue.
o Neutral : Grey or Black.
o Ground : Green / Yellow
Factory-apply color the entire length of the conductors, except
the following field applied, color-coding methods may be used in
lieu of factory-coded wire.
Apply Identification to conductors as follows:
Conductors to Be Extended in the Future: Indicate source and circuit
numbers.
Multiple Power or Lighting Circuits in the Same Enclosure: Identify
each conductor with source, voltage, circuit number, and phase. Use
color coding for voltage and phase indication of secondary circuit.
Multiple Control and Communications Circuits in the Same Enclosure:
Identify each conductor by its system and circuit designation. Use a
consistent system of tags, color coding, or cable marking tape.
General Identification as follows:
Apply labels for each unit of the following categories of equipment.
a) Panel boards, electrical cabinets, and enclosures.
b) Electrical switchgear and switchboards.
c) Motor control centers.
Apply designation labels for disconnect switches, breakers, push
buttons, pilot lights, motor control centers, and similar items for power
distribution and control components above.
For panel boards, provide typed circuit schedules with explicit
description and identification of items controlled by each individual
breaker.
Raise Request for Inspection of Electrical Identification Installation.
Technical Assistance:
The installation supervising technician for the system trade shall
instruct the CONSULTANT Engineer, and Construction Site
Manager on the programming and correct operation of the
system after the installation is completed.
This instruction shall be scheduled at the convenience of the
staff.
All such instruction shall be properly recorded.
WIR will be issued for Consultant approval upon making sure that
the installation of the system equipment’s done as per approved
shopdrawings and specs and manufacturer recommendations.
