PART 9 - AUSTIN WATER SECURITY SYSTEM STANDARDS

9.1 Integrated Security Management System- Genetec Security Center/Omni Cast

A. Genetec is a program name that encompasses all the physical security systems that safeguard and monitor the numerous facilities throughout Austin Water’s area of operation.

It is intended to be a unified platform consisting of access control, video surveillance, and intrusion detection systems, and various sub-systems that interface or integrate to provide additional security, such as intercoms, vehicle gates, turnstiles, and perimeter fencing. This allows Austin Water to monitor, maintain and perform administrative duties within a single

GUI.

B. New facilities or renovations shall be designed to integrate into the Owner’s existing Genetec Security platform architectures and subsystems, unless otherwise approved by the Owner.

9.2 Security Cabling and Conduit Pathways

A. General

1. This section addresses common wiring principles and techniques that Austin Water has standardized for security cabling, network drops, conduit and rough-in requirements required to support the ACS.

2. Cabling, rough-ins, and conduit pathway requirements listed herein are typical and shall be recessed whenever possible. In the case of renovation or retrofit, cabling and pathway shall be recessed whenever possible such as when a device is mounted on existing drywall etc. Any exposed conduit pathways or back boxes shall be carefully coordinated with the Owner. At no time is wire mold permitted unless specifically specified by Austin Water’s Security Dept.

B. Security Cabling

1. Security wiring shall be provided with 10 feet of slack inside the applicable MDF/IDF Room and 5 feet of slack above the access-controlled door left neatly coiled and stored.

2. Security wiring shall be labeled 2-inches from both ends per Austin Water standards.

Jacketing shall be stripped back near point of termination. Unused conductors on any wire shall be trimmed back and properly covered to avoid potential shorts. Cable shielding, drain wires, and other insulating materials shall be neatly cut to avoid shorting with other conductor cables.

3. Heat shrink labels shall be applied to the exposed jacketing to cover and protect the transition point from the overall jacket to the individual conductors for added protection. The use of electrical tape for these transition points is not permitted.

4. Outdoor wire harness terminations or splices shall be properly soldered, and heat shrink shall be applied to provide maximum protection to the connection.

5. All exterior card reader doors that receive double pole double throw (DPDT) door position switches will require (1) additional cable tied to the intrusion detection system.

6. All double doors that receive door position switches shall be wired in series and operate as one input for monitoring on an ACS or IDS.

7. All cable carrying data or voice transmissions is shielded. All other cables are shielded where necessary for interference-free signals.

8. Color-coding is accomplished by using solidly colored insulation (i.e., all. Grounding conductors, where insulated, is colored solid green or identified with green color as required by the National Electric Code (NEC).

9. Run all wire and cable continuously from device location to the final point of

12 | P a g e termination. No mid-run cable splices are allowed.

10. Wire and cable within power distribution cabinets and other security enclosures is neatly installed, completely terminated, pulled tight with slack removed and routed in such a way as to allow direct, unimpeded access to the equipment within the enclosure. All wire and cable are bundled and tied. Hook and Loop straps are the preferred method of tying down cabling. Zip ties or Tye wraps are not permitted.

11. Provide grommets and strain relief material where necessary to avoid abrasion of wire and excess tension on wire and cable. Lock rings and nylon threaded bushings shall be used to secure conduit connections to security enclosures.

12. Make connections with solder-less devices, mechanically and electrically secured in accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendations. Wire nuts are not an acceptable means of connecting wire and cable. Wire bean connectors where utilized shall be rated for the environment for they are installed.

14. All System wiring within vertical riser shafts (as required) is bundled, wrapped, and tied to the structure at three-meter intervals to isolate it from other wire and cable within the shaft. Additionally, all wire and cable within the shaft is supported at least every two floors using Greenlee Slack Grips (Split Mesh Lace Closing) or approved equal. Provide all personnel and equipment necessary to install and support the cable.

All equipment is UL listed for the application.

Contractor provides all conduit necessary for complete installation, but not provided by the electrical contractor, in finished areas concealed in chases, furring, concrete slabs and/or above suspended ceilings. No exposed conduit is to be installed within public areas.

2. Conduit is carefully installed, properly and adequately supported as required to comply with the requirements outlined herein and as required by the NEC to provide a neat, Workmanlike installation. Horizontal conduit runs are supported by clamps, pipe straps, special brackets, or heavy iron tie, tied to the black iron structural members supporting the ceiling. Fastening of conduit to masonry walls, floor or partitions require malleable pipe clips with screws and suitable expansion sleeves.

3. All conducts are cut accurately to measurements established at the building and is installed without springing or forcing.

4. All required inserts are drilled-in, and all openings required through concrete or masonry is saw cut or core drilled with tools specifically designed for this purpose.

5. Swab out and remove all burs from conduit before any wires are pulled.

6. Layout and install conduit run as to avoid proximity to hot pipes. In no case shall a conduit be run within proximity of such pipes, except where crossings are unavoidable and then the conduit is kept at least 1” from the covering of the pipe crossed.

7. Provide fire stops where conduits penetrate fire rated walls and/or floors.

8. All conduit installation, whether run exposed or concealed, is approved prior to installation by the Owner.
