Installation Guide for Building Wire

1. According to the manufacturer’s written instructions, applicable standard requirements, and recognized industry practices, lay wires, cables, and joints to ensure that the laying meets the requirements and can achieve the expected purpose.

2. Make necessary coordination to ensure proper connection of building wire to other projects.

3. If multiple building wires need to be laid in the same path and wires need to be pulled out at the same time.

4. Use anti jamming adhesive to connect the copper strip to the busbar.

5. Use adhesives or lubricants when necessary; The adhesive used should not corrode building wires or insulators.

6. Use pulling methods that do not damage building wires or channels, including retractable coils, cables, ropes, and square tissue wire/cable clamps.

7. Lay exposed building wire, parallel or rubber, or exposed to structural components, and lay along surface contours as appropriate.

8. Before pulling out the building wire, complete the laying of conduits or channels (tightly connected and ensuring the entire circuit).

9. Do not pull out thermoplastic wires when the temperature is below -170 ° C.

10. Secure the building wire at the upper end and intermediate joints of all risers in accordance with approved manufacturers and applicable electrical specifications.

11. If the building wire enter buildings from underground through conduits, use approved non hardening adhesive to seal the wires and conduits.

12. If required, install wire spacing devices. Provide conduit devices at the terminals to isolate the wires, including galvanized or cadmium plates, steel or malleable iron conduits, and devices and non-metallic insulation materials, with holes in appropriate locations to facilitate proper isolation of cables.

13. In some systems, equipment provided by approved manufacturers may require different wire quantities and arrangements than specified on the drawings. In this case, following this requirement will not result in any additional costs being borne by the owner.

14. Bundle and tie three-phase neutral (if used) conductors laid in conduits in wire paths and large pull out boxes to limit unbalanced load on the conductors.

15. All terminals and lighting equipment ends should be fully relaxed for connection and maintenance. Place the loose end in the outlet box.

16. Configure connectors at access boxes, control panel devices, pipe trays, terminal panels, etc., and provide materials compatible with building wires, insulators, and protective sheaths on wires.

17. Keep the quantity of conduit joints in a electrical system minimize as much as possible.

18. Install connectors with mechanical strength and insulation level equal to or higher than the connected building wires. Use connectors that are compatible with the wire material.

19. Strengthen the power joints and terminals according to the torque values published by the manufacturer, including screws and bolts. If there are no specified manufacturer’s torque requirements, connect the joints and terminals to meet the approved manufacturer’s specified tightening torque.

20. Connect power supply wires and equipment wires according to the written instructions and wiring diagrams of the equipment manufacturer. Match the wires of the power connector for proper contact between the power supply and the installed equipment.

21. A joint made of power insulation material with an insulation induction level equal to or higher than the connected wire.

22. Prepare building wires by cutting and peeling off the covering armor, sheath, and insulation layer to ensure the uniformity and appearance of the terminated building wires. Avoid cutting through connectors on wires. When peeling off the insulation layer, it is also important to avoid cutting copper wires. Use specially designed tools to cut the armor sheath.

23. Thermoplastic wires cannot be laid on the raised floor in the computer area.
