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:
• Phase A : Red.
• Phase B : Yellow
• Phase C : Blue.
• Neutral : Grey or Black.
• 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.
• Panel boards, electrical cabinets, and enclosures.
• Electrical switchgear and switchboards.
• 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.
