WIRE AND CABLE

A. Principles
1. All wiring and cable shall be installed in metal raceways or within equipment.
2. Conductors within equipment enclosures shall be carefully cabled and laced.
3. Individual conductors shall be tagged with markers indicating the function, source, and destination of all cabling, wiring, and terminals.
4. All cables and wires shall be identified, utilizing heat-shrink, pre-printed, wire markers.
B. Number of conductors
1. As recommended by system manufacturer for functions indicated.
C. Cheek-in and tests
1. After installation, and before termination, all wiring and cabling shall be checked and tested to ensure there are no grounds, opens, or shorts on any conductors or shields (greater than 20 Mega ohms shall be required to successfully complete the test).
D. Visual inspection
1. Visually inspect wire and cable for faulty insulation prior to installation.
2. Protect cable ends at all times with acceptable end caps except during actual termination.
3. At no time shall optical Fibre be subjected to a bend less than a 150 mm radius.
E. Mechanical Protection
1. Protect wire and cable from kinks.
2. Provide grommets and strain relief material where necessary, to avoid abrasion of wire and excess tension on wire and cable.
F. Fire Protection
1. Cable not required to be in conduit shall be LS0H cable (Low Smoke and zero Halogen cable).
2. Security cables shall be CR1-C1 cables.
G. Splices, taps, and terminations
1. Make connections only on numbered terminal strips in junction, pull, and outlet boxes; terminal cabinets; and equipment enclosures.
H. Identification
1. Identify components, conductors, and cables according to Section "Basic Electrical Materials and Methods."
2. Colour-code conductors, and apply wire and cable marking tape to designate wires and cables so media are identified and in co-ordination with system wiring diagrams.
I. Raceways
1. All raceways shall be installed in accordance with Section "Raceways and Boxes".
2. Exposed raceway below 2.4 meters and in dry locations shall be rigid steel conduit.
J. Cable Trays
1. No ULV containment including cable trays, trunking, ducts etc. shall be loaded more than 60% of the available space. Contractor is responsible to size the containment appropriately taking into account all systems and the type of cables to be used based on selected vendor for each system.
2. In general ULV containment route shall follow the electrical containment route with sufficient clearance. However, any other routes followed shall be to the approval of the Engineer.
