Once in the 147 SUITE corridor another junction box will be added before being installed SIM server room for the installation of the 100amp panel. Verify proposed conduit location with the COR and receive approval before commencing work. Within the 147 SUITE section the subpanel will be installed surface mounted in the SIM server room. The conduit path is intended to follow the path as outlined in Figure1 and as described above, adjustments for existing conditions may be necessary to complete conduit install. With approval from the COR the contractor can adjust conduit path at no additional costs for convenience to the contractor. The EMT will run above the office ceiling and be fastened with the appropriately sized EMT straps, fasteners, or harnesses at appropriate distances along the path of the conduit according to the NEC. Contractor is to move all ceiling components to include grid, tile, insulation, to gain access to work and restore after work is complete and inspected. The conductor running from the main 120/208 panel to the 100amp subpanel will run through the 4” EMT and will be copper stranded conductor sized accordingly for the 100amp subpanel. When entering the 147 SUITE location penetrations of the perimeter wall will be installed in accordance with UFC 4-10-05. Penetrations of the perimeter shall be kept to a minimum. Utilities (power and signal) will enter the SCIF at a single point. All utility penetrations will be sealed to mitigate acoustic emanations and covert entry. All metallic penetrations through SCIF walls shall be considered carriers of compromising emanations (CE) and pose TEMPEST hazards that shall be addressed. For metal conduit or pipe: provide a dielectric union inside the SCIF perimeter adjacent to the penetration or ground the conduit within 6 inch (150 mm) of the perimeter penetration using a no. 4 wire (0.2043-diameter copper wire) to the building ground as shown in Figure 2. Per DoDM 5105.21 Vol 2, SCIF personnel must be informed when non-SCI indoctrinated personnel have entered and departed the SCIF. This may be accomplished either verbally or through visual notification methods. After the installation of the subpanel, the Main 120/208 panel schedule will be updated to indicate that the 100amp subpanel was installed.

Receptacles

Any exposed EMT and electrical boxes in office areas will be painted to match the color of the wall in that area. Each of the eight (8) circuits will be connected to a 3-gang box with three 20amp 125-Volt receptacles in each box. Two (2) 20amp dedicated circuits will run to the closet in the 147 SUITE corridor. These dedicated circuits will be installed into a 1-gang box each with a single 20amp 125-Volt receptacle in each 1-gang box. All the receptacles will be installed and wired in accordance with the NEC. Reference locations for the dedicated circuits have been provided in Figure 3. The specific locations of the receptacles will be outlined during the walkthrough with the contractor and specified for the contractor before construction begins. After installation of the receptacles the 100-amp subpanel schedule will be updated to reflect the locations of the dedicated circuits.

Communications Conduit

7.3. Fifteen (15) 1” conduit runs will be installed throughout several locations in the 147 SUITE location. These conduit runs will be alongside the electrical conduit runs with 6” of separation. The 15 conduit drops will be approximately in the locations specified in Figure 4. Figure 4 is for reference only and the exact locations/heights of the conduit will be determined during the walkthrough. The conduit will have wall boxes attached that are 4”x4”. Any exposed EMT in office areas will be painted to match the color of the wall in that office area. EMT will stub-up into the ceilings 6” above the ceiling tiles. All EMT will run above the office ceilings and be fastened with the appropriately sized EMT straps, fasteners, or harnesses at appropriate distances along the path of the conduit according to the NEC. The conduit runs and boxes will be empty to allow for communications to run their cable.

Cleanup

7.4. Due to construction in active office areas, construction will be cleaned up daily as work progresses. If anything is moved during the construction process (e.g., ceiling tiles) it will be returned to its original location if possible. Any damage to any parts of the facility will be the responsibility of the contractor. Contractor will be responsible for all cleanup/repairs needed that are caused by the construction. All tools, time and equipment needed for cleanup will be at the expense of the contractor.
