If plan review is <br />required, select the box next to (b) and (c) to acknowledge that plan review is required and the electrical plans have been provided <br />with this permit application. <br />* If item (a)-(ii, iii, or v) is selected, the work must also comply with section (a)-(vii). See arrow flow chart below. <br />(3) Electrical plan review. <br />❑ (a) Electrical plan review is not required for <br />© (i) Low voltage systems; <br />(ii) Lighting specific projects that result in an electrical load reduction on each feeder involved in the project; <br />(iii) Heating and cooling specific retrofit projects that result in an electrical load reduction on each existing feeder <br />involved in the project, provided there is not a corresponding increase in the available fault current in any feeder. <br />❑ (iv) Stand-alone utility fed services that do not exceed 250 volts, 400 amperes where the project's distribution system <br />does not include: <br />(A) Emergency systems other than listed unit equipment per NEC 700.12(F); <br />(B) An essential electrical system defined in NEC 517.2; or <br />(C) A required fire pump system. <br />(v) Modifications to existing electrical installations where all of the following conditions are met: <br />(A) Service or distribution equipment involved is rated not more than 400 amperes and does not exceed <br />250 volts or for lighting circuits not exceeding 277 volts to ground; <br />(B) Does not involve emergency systems other than listed unit equipment per NEC 700.12(F); <br />(C) Does not involve branch circuits or teeders of an essential electrical system as defined in NEC 517.2; <br />and <br />(D) Service or teeder load calculations are increased by 5% or less. <br />(vi) Electric power production source(s) such as solar photovoltaic, fuel cell, or wind electric system(s) with a total <br />El <br />rating of 9600 watts or less. <br />(vii) For installations in (a)(ii), (iii), and (v) of this subsection to be considered, the following must be available <br />❑ to the electrical inspector before the work is initiated: <br />(A) A clear and adequate description of the project's scope; <br />(B) A load calculation(s); <br />(C) What the load changes are, providing both before and after panel schedules as needed; and <br />(D) Provide information showing that the service and feeder(s) supplying the panel(s) where the work is <br />taking place has adequate capacity for any increased load and has code compliant overcurrent protection <br />for that supply. <br />NOTE: Electrical plan review is not required for "Medical, dental, and chiropractic clinic" of which is a clinic or <br />❑ physicians' office where patients are not regularly kept as bed patients for twenty-four hours or more, per section <br />(1)(c)(xii). <br />❑(b) Electrical plan review is required for all other new or altered electrical projects in educational, institutional, or health care <br />occupancies defined in this chapter. <br />❑ (c) If a review is required, the electrical plan must be submitted for review and approval before the electrical work is begun. <br />Table 900-1 <br />Health or Personal Care Facilities <br />Health or Personal Care Facility <br />Type <br />Plan Revie,n <br />Required <br />Hospital <br />Nursing ncr-,e unfit or Lo -team <br />Care unit <br />Boardinoh <br />Assisted Imne facility <br />Private alcohoks^-n------ <br />Private psychiatry <br />-- -- <br />Maternkty home <br />Ambulatorysurfad;it' <br />- <br />Renal hemod aiysi<rllnic <br />_ <br />Residential t,eatmer.t fac;i:ty <br />Enhanced service face; cy <br />- <br />Adultresidenvaire:habiilta,uor <br />center <br />_ <br />Table 900.2 <br />Educational and Institutional Facilities, Places of .Assembly, or Other Facilities <br />Educational, Institutional, or, <br />Other Facility Types <br />Plan Review <br />Required <br />-�'.0 Ca tEG na1 <br />i!1 iaLa rjn, <br />.e5 <br />Notes to Tables 900-1 and 900-2. <br />-nay re r,iiifan re'ri", c,n fa ci 51107 <br />ev ie vdei. by the cl pa,,t31".e <br />PERMIT # <br />Page 2-Plan Review <br />
