reserved by the Designer to change the exact location of any switch, light outlet in any room before same is installed. If any
outlet is installed by the Contractor in such a manner as to be out of proper relation to beams, walls or other details of the
building construction, its position or location shall be corrected by and at the expense of the Contractor and under the direction
of the Designer. Mounting heights of outlets and switches shall be as called for on the Drawings.

ALL MOUNTING HEIGHTS SHALL BE VERIFIED FROM THE ENGINEER BEFORE ACTUAL INSTALLATION OF
OUTLET BOXES.
11.08 Wires and Cables: The Electrical Contractor shall furnish and install a complete wiring system as shown on the Drawing. All
conductors used in the wiring system shall be soft-drawn copper wire having a conductivity of not less than 98% that of pure
copper, with 600 volt rating, unless otherwise noted.
A. No wires shall be drawn into the conduit until all work which may cause injury to the wires is completed and until
permission is given by the Designer in writing. Only powdered lubricants not injurious to cable insulation and raceways
shall be used and only when lubricants is necessary. All wires and cables for power, lighting , control and auxiliaries shall
 be continuous from origin to destination without splices in intermediate pull boxes where runs do not exceed 30.48 meters
in length. Only sufficient slack shall be left at the ends of the wires and cables as may be necessary. Solder less pressure
connectors of proper size shall be used for terminals, taps and splices for all secondary voltage wires and cables except for
branch circuits. Connections shall be securely fastened and shall be such as not to loosen under vibration and normal
strain.
B. Branch Circuit splices shall be soldered, or joined by the use of insulated splicing devices (wire nuts). All soldered joints
shall be made mechanically strong before soldering and shall be carefully soldered without the use of acid, then tape with
rubber tape to a thickness equal to that of the insulation and with a covering of friction tape of two layers. Plastic tape may
be used in lieu of rubber and friction tapes. Unless otherwise indicated on Drawings, not more than the number of
conductors constituting a single circuit or branch shall be drawn in one conduit. Where solid conductors are to be
connected directly to device without use of lugs, such as those at lighting switches and plug receptacles, the wires shall be
formed into a clockwise loop to fit around the screws.
11.09 Outlet, Switch, and Junction Boxes : The Contractor shall furnish and install standard pressed steel boxes or cast metal boxes
gauge 16 deep type, at all outlets for lights, appliances, and switches and at other points as required by the construction and as
called for on the Drawings.
Boxes shall be of approved design and construction, and of such form and dimension as required to serve the kind of fixtures to
be used and the number, size and arrangement of conduits connecting thereto. The allowable conductor fill as given in Rule
2486 of the Philippine Electrical Code shall not be exceeded. Deep boxes, box rings and raised plaster covers shall be used
when necessary to obtain the required conductor capacity. Floor outlets shall have standard round adjustable boxes.
Boxes for outlets on auxiliary system shall be as specified elsewhere in these Specifications or as shown on the Drawings.
11.10 Conduit System: The Contractor shall furnish and install conduits and tubing shall be as specified in these Specifications.
Not more than four 90 degrees bends shall occur in any run. When it becomes necessary to have more than four 90 degrees
bends in any run, an intermediate pull box shall be installed to facilitate pulling in of wires.
All conduit runs shall be concealed generally in floors, ceilings and walls except feeder runs in the electrical closets shall run
exposed along walls and ceilings. Conduit runs shall be installed in such a manner as not to weaken or interfere with the
structure of the building. No horizontal runs of embedded conduit or tubing shall be permitted in solid walls and partitions.
Conduits below grade shall be encased in concrete envelope with a minimum thickness of 3 mm or embedded in floor slab.
Exposed conduits shall be run parallel to or at right angles with lines of the building. Exposed conduits shall be securely
fastened in place by means of approved supports and fastenings. Conduits supports shall be fastened to walls by means of
screws or bolts with expansion sleeves. the use of wooden or lead plugs is not permitted Conduits shall be cut by hacksaw, the
ends shall be firmly attached to cabinets or boxes by means of locknuts or bushings. Field bends shall not be allowed for rigid
steel conduits larger than 20 mm trade size.
Tubing shall not be coupled together nor connected to boxes, fittings, or cabinets by means of threads in the wall of the tubing.
Only fittings approved for the purpose shall be used. Thread less couplings and connectors used with the tubing shall be of the
concrete tight type. Field bends in tubing shall have a radius of curvature not less than those specified in the Philippine
Electrical Code. No tubing smaller than 15 mm trade size shall be used.
Conduits and tubing not embedded in concrete shall be firmly supported and fastened in place every 3.00 meters and within
900 mm of each outlet box or cabinet.
11.11 Wiring Devices: The Contractor shall furnish and install all wiring devices as indicated or as called for on the Drawings. All
switches shall be rated for current capacity not less than 100% of the current of the load controlled where switches are rated
"AC. ONLY". Refer to schedule of wiring devices on the Plans for each type, manufacturer and catalogue number. Wall
plates for telephone and intercom outlets shall have a single hole at the center.
11.12 Service Entrance Line: Exact location shall be verified with the Power Company. The Contractor shall provide and install a
complete service entrance system as shown and required on the Plans or as required for a complete system.
11.13 Metering as per Electrical Plans: The Contractor shall install meter base. Meter shall be furnished and installed by local
utility company. Deposits will be paid by the Owner.
11.14 Telephone System: The Contractor shall provide the complete telephone system including paperwork and plans that may be
required by the TELCO Company; deposit by Owner. Terminal Cabinets shall be code gauge construction and provided with
snap catch and brass lock and shall be provided with 20mm. thk. Plyboard (asphalt treated) as backboard.
All equipment and materials such as cabinet, conduit, terminal block, house and station wiring, boxes, plates, etc. shall be by
