certificate Occupency
We are trying in PA to get a C of O for a 130 year old building. In the inspection process to get the C of O the inspector told us we have to protect the seven 100 amp subfeeds that run through the basement.
The electrican run them below the ceiling rafters and clamped them on.
The inspector said we had to protect them. So we can't remove them and start over, they supply apts two floors above.
We got flex drain pipe ( the underground pipe without the perts.) Cut the pipe lengthways. We spread the pipe and put it over all seven lines. Then we attached the entire pipe with 4" hooks and nailed them to the ceiling.
The subfeeds snake through the building about 100' and make bends and curves.
But the inspector failed the job stating that they were not protected. The raceway he suggested was the same type of protection and almost impossible to install. You nail the hangers up and then feed the lines through it then clip on the cover.
I mean this building is very old and very hard to work in.
Any ideas. Total of nine lines running throught the basement Seven in up bundle. The other two nailed to the wooden support colunm. I imagine these are not installed correctly too?
