Bus bar taps for panels with single pole branches shall be arranged for sequence phasing of the branch circuit devices. Busing shall be braced throughout to conform to industry standard practice governing short circuit stresses in panelboards. Bracing shall be equivalent to, or compatible with, the rated interrupting capacity of the smallest overcurrent device in that panelboard.

G. Phase busing shall be full height without reduction. Cross connectors shall be copper.

H. Neutral busing shall have a suitable lug for each outgoing feeder requiring a neutral connection.

I. Spaces for future switching and protective devices on lighting and appliance panelboards shall be bused for the maximum device that can be fitted into them.

J. Three-phase busing shall be such that any three adjacent single pole breakers are individually connected to each of the three different phases in such a manner that two or three pole breakers can be installed at any location.

K. Circuit breakers shall be quick-make, quick-break, thermal-magnetic, trip indicating type, with common trip on multi-pole breakers.

L. Connection of the breaker to the bus shall be plug-on or bolt-on.

M. Unless otherwise indicated, circuit breakers shall have a minimum interrupting rating of at least 10,000 amperes, symmetrical, for 120 volt and 240 volt breakers.

N. Boxes shall be made from unpainted, galvanized, code gauge steel having multiple knockouts, except where noted. Boxes shall be of sufficient size to provide a minimum gutter space of 4 inches on all sides.

O. Boxes shall be galvanized steel of a minimum 20 inches wide in accordance with NEMA Standards Publication No. PBI and UL Standard No. 67.

P. At least four interior mounting studs shall be provided.

Q. Identification numbers shall be on the box.

R. Hinged doors covering all switch device handles shall be included in all panel trims, except that panelboards having individual metal clad externally operable dead-front units may be supplied without such doors.

S. Doors in panelboard trims shall conform to the following:

1. In making switching device handles accessible, doors shall not uncover any live parts.

2. Doors shall have semi-flush type cylinder locks and catches, except that doors over 48 inches in height shall have a vault handle and 3-point catch, complete with a lock arranged to fasten the door at the top, bottom and center. Door locks shall be keyed alike. A directory frame and card having a transparent cover shall be furnished on each door.

T. The trims shall be fabricated from code gauge sheet steel.

U. All exterior and interior steel surfaces of the panelboard shall be properly cleaned and finished with gray ANSI-61 paint over a rust inhibiting phosphatized coating.

V. Trims for flush panels shall overlap the box by at least 3/4 of an inch all around. Surface trims shall have the same width and height as the box. Trims shall be mountable by a screwdriver without the need for special tools.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.01 LOCATION

A. All items shall be installed in the locations specified on the drawings (Field Verify Locations with On-Site Staff).

3.02 DIRECTORIES

A. All branch circuit panelboards and other equipment having card slots shall have the cards accurately filled out with a typewriter to identify the circuit or function. Cards shall be placed in the card slots and protected with a clear, plastic, cover sheet. Cards shall present a neat and clean appearance.
