Please advise if conduit can be exposed and installed below ceiling. It can be but not desired.
4 FA524023R0031 Please adivice if galvanized conduit is to be used for this project? Galvanized conduit does not have to be used.

6 FA524023R0031 What is the minimum sized of conduit allowed for each coax cable?
Current operating procedures state conduit can't be larger than 4" for the facility, we expect there to be a minimum of 4 conduit runs with required drilling. Most cables have a diameter of 1/2 inch minimum.
7 FA524023R0031 Do we need to provide power (receptacle outlet) for the new equipment?
Outlets are already existing in Rm 130 & 131. We believe the load is sufficient, power study can be conducted to confirm.
8 FA524023R0031 Please advise if cable termination will be done by the contractor. Yes. This will be needed.
9 FA524023R0031 Please provide the exact location where to route conduits for the communication equipment.
Antennas need to be mounted to the side of the building at the highest point, with conduit going directly into Rm 131.
Route cabling/conduits anywhere above the ceiling tiles from Rm 131 (Radio Rm) to Rm 123 (EACell).
10 FA524023R0031 Please verify if pull boxes, cable trays, associated grounding and bonding are included in the GFCI.
Contractor needs to supply all the associated. It is not included.
11 FA524023R0031
Do we need to provide new grounding for each communication equipment or grounding only for the antenna location?
Everything will need grounding; site survey will be required to check if we can bond to existing system or if it will need a new independent run.
