A. PRIOR TO SUBMITTING PROPOSAL, BIDDER SHALL EXAMINE ALL GENERAL CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS.

B. CERTAIN REMODELING OF ELECTRICAL FACILITIES WILL BE REQUIRED IN THE EXISTING BUILDING. EXISTING CONDUIT RUNS ARE GENERALLY NOT SHOWN. ALTHOUGH A FULL ATTEMPT HAS BEEN MADE TO SHOW SOME EXISTING CONDITIONS, OF WHICH INFORMATION HAS BEEN TAKEN FROM EXISTING RECORD DRAWINGS OF THIS PROJECT. THE DRAWINGS SHOWING LOCATION OF EXISTING EQUIPMENT, OUTLETS, FIXTURES, ETC., IN EXISTING AREAS ARE

APPROXIMATE ONLY (FIELD VERIFY).

C. BRANCH CIRCUITS SHALL BE REUSED WHERE PRACTICAL AND SHALL, IN ADDITION, BE REMODELED AS REQUIRED. THE

CONTRACTOR SHALL CONCEAL ALL WORK WHERE POSSIBLE.

D. EXISTING ELECTRICAL WIRING WHICH WILL NOT BE MADE OBSOLETE AND WHICH WILL BE DISTURBED DUE TO CONSTRUCTION CHANGES REQUIRED BY THIS CONTRACT SHALL BE RESTORED TO OPERATING CONDITION, AS REQUIRED AND/OR DIRECTED. WHERE REQUIRED, SHOWN AND/OR DIRECTED, OUTLETS AND CONDUIT RUNS SHALL BE RELOCATED. IN SOME CASES IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO EXTEND CONDUITS AND PULL IN NEW WIRING OR INSTALL

JUNCTION BOXES AND SPLICE IN NEW WIRING OR REPLACE OLD WIRING WITH NEW.

E. OUTLETS FROM WHICH FIXTURES, SWITCHES, RECEPTACLES, AND/OR OTHER ELECTRICAL DEVICES ARE MOVED AND WHICH ARE NOT REPLACED OR REUSED SHALL BE REMOVED OR, IF IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO REMOVE, PLACE A BLANK COVER ON THE OUTLET BOX. WHERE OUTLETS, BOXES, ETC., ARE COMPLETELY REMOVED, THE CONTRACTOR SHALL

CUT OFF CONDUITS AND REMOVE WIRING.

F. WHERE EXISTING LIGHT FIXTURES ARE TO BE REUSED, THE ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR SHALL CLEAN AND REPLACE

LAMPS, REPAIR OR REPLACE DEFECTIVE PARTS, LENS, BALLAST, ETC. AS REQUIRED.

G. WHERE CONDUITS EXTENDING THROUGH FLOORS ARE TO BE ABANDONED, THE CONTRACTOR SHALL CUT AND CAP OR

PLUG CONDUIT, THAT IT WILL NOT PROTRUDE ABOVE THE FLOOR.

H. WHERE EXISTING CONDUIT IS TO BE ABANDONED, THE CONDUIT SHALL BE REMOVED IF IT IS EXPOSED, IN A CRAWL SPACE OR IN AN ACCESSIBLE CEILING. WHERE IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE THE CONDUIT, IT SHALL BE CUT OFF AND

CAPPED OR PLUGGED.
