ENGINEERING <br /> PUBLIC SERVICES DEPARTMENT <br /> April 5, 2018CIick here to enter a date. <br /> Jon Beade, PE <br /> Hargis Engineers <br /> 1201 Third Avenue Suite 600 <br /> Seattle, WA 98101 <br /> RE: Owner: Everett Public Schools <br /> Job Address: 8702 7th Ave SE <br /> Plan Check Number: E1803-180 <br /> Dear Mr. Beade, <br /> In response to your application for a construction permit, your plans have been examined and you <br /> are advised that the issuance of a permit is being withheld for the reasons listed below. These <br /> comments address electrical issues only. Additional revisions or additions may be required by other <br /> departments (such as Utilities, Planning or Fire). All references refer to the (2017 National Electrical <br /> Code,) (2017 Chapter 296-46B WAC rules,) as amended by the State of Washington and/or <br /> Washington State Energy Code 2015 Edition, and adopted by the City of Everett, unless stated <br /> otherwise. <br /> In order for the processing of your application to continue, it will be necessary to provide <br /> the Building Division with two new complete sets of drawings reflecting the corrections <br /> requested. <br /> 1. The load calculations on page E-400 shows that the feeder to panel DP is a 3&1/2' conduit <br /> with 3 350kcmils and #4 AWG g. If this is right there is no grounded conductor or it is <br /> single phase. The drawing also says that it is 3 phase. A 350kcmil copper conductor is only <br /> rated for 310 amps per NEC 310.15 and the next standard overcurrent device per NEC <br /> 240.6(A) would be 350 amps not 400 amps which is shown. If these are indeed the actual <br /> conductors and overcurrent device installed these issues should be corrected. <br /> 2. The new load shown on page E-400 exceeds the rating of both the conductor shown and <br /> what the proper overcurrent device should be and cannot therefore be connected. <br /> If you have any questions, please email or call me at (425) 259-7270. Upon submittal of the <br /> drawings, your application will be given priority and plan reviews will recommence. All required <br /> submittals shall be sufficient detail and contain sufficient information to ensure that the proposed <br /> structure will be constructed in compliance with all adopted codes. <br /> Please prepare a response letter showing where each item in this correction <br /> letter is addressed on the plan set. <br /> Page 1 of 2 <br /> CITY OF EVERETT • 3200 Cedar Street • Everett, WA 98201 • (425) 257-8810 • Fax (425) 257-:: <br />
