PART 3 - EXECUTION

3.1 ACCURACY OF DATA

A. It shall be the Contractor's sole responsibility to verify all dimensions, take his own field measurements, and install all work to suit conditions encountered on the job site.

B. The drawings are generally diagrammatic and, except where dimensions are indicated, are not intended to show the exact locations of outlets, conduits, etc. All work shall be installed as nearly as possible in the locations indicated, with minor adjustments as required to avoid interferences with structure or the work of other trades.

C. Prior to beginning work, the Contractor shall carefully examine all construction drawings and the job site and report to the Owner any discrepancies or interference that may be discovered. If, during the course of construction, any such discrepancies or interferences are noted, the

Contractor shall promptly report them to the Owner. Failure to report such discrepancies or interferences shall result in the correction of the same at the Contractor's expense. All work under this specification, which either interferes with the architectural or any other work or deviates from the drawings and specifications without prior approval of the Owner, shall be altered by the Contractor at his expense. These alterations shall clear such interferences or shall comply with the drawings and specifications as directed by the Owner.

3.2 MECHANICAL

A. Except for portable equipment, all other equipment must be permanently installed. This shall include equipment racks, speakers, cables, etc. Fastenings and supports must provide a safety factor of at least three times what is required for safe support. Precautions must be taken to prevent electrostatic and electromagnetic hum and radio frequency interference. All electronic equipment must be easily accessible and have adequate ventilation.

3.3 CONNECTIONS

A. All low-voltage wiring connections must be made with rosin core solder or mechanical connectors as specified. Terminations on all cables must be dressed properly with shrink tubing.

All low voltage control level connections to terminal blocks are to be made with crimp-on spade lugs. All crimp-on connectors must be fastened with the proper tool as specified by the manufacturer. Improper crimping will be a cause for rejection. All "drain" wires on microphone and line level terminations are to be properly dressed using transparent shrink tubing to avoid the possibility of shorting "whiskers."

3.4 LABELS

A. All wiring must be numbered on both ends with “EZ Code” type markers. Wire numbers are to be secured with transparent shrink-tubing. They must follow a logical sequence and be listed on the proper document. “Brady” type labels are acceptable.

3.5 INSTALLATION

A. General

1. Installation shall include the delivery to the installation site, unloading, setting in place, mounting, and securing equipment to walls, floors, ceilings, cabinetry, or other structures.

Also, interconnection of any cables, wires, fiber optics, or other infrastructure. Any

274116 - 25 equipment alignment, adjustments, menu settings, or other requirements to ensure the appropriate operation of the system.

2. All installation practices…
