PART 3 - EXECUTION <br />3.01 INSTALLATION <br />A. All conductors shall be carefully handled to avoid links or damage to insulation. <br />B. Lubrications shall be used to facilitate wire pulling. Lubricants shall be U.L. listed for use with <br />the insulation specified. <br />C. Shielded instrumentation wire shall be installed from terminal to terminal with no splicing at any <br />intermediate point. <br />D. Instrumentation cables shall be separated from power and control cables in pullboxes. <br />D. Shielding on instrumentation wire shall be grounded at the transmitter end only, or as directed by <br />the supplier of the instrumentation equipment. <br />E. Wire and cable connections to terminals, splices, and taps shall be made with compression <br />connectors. Connections of insulated conductors shall be insulated and covered. All connections <br />shall be made using materials and installation methods in accordance with instructions and <br />recommendations of the manufacturer of the particular item of wire and cable. The conductivity <br />of all completed connections shall be not less than that of the uncut conductor. -The insulation <br />resistance of all completed connections of insulated conductors shall be not less than that ofthe <br />uncut conductor. <br />F. All wire and cable shall be continuous and without splices between points of connection to <br />equipment terminals, except a splice will be permitted by the Engineer if the length required <br />between the points of connection exceeds the greatest standard shipping length available from the <br />manufacturer specified or approved by the Engineer as the manufacturer of the particular item of <br />wire and cable. <br />G. Steel fish tapes and/or steel pulling cables shall not be used in PVC conduit runs. <br />3.02 TESTS <br />A. All 600 volt wire insulation shall be tested with a megohm meter after installation. Tests shall be <br />made at not less than 1,000 VDC. <br />END OF SECTION <br />16120-2 <br />
