C. Install raceways parallel and perpendicular to nearby surfaces or structural members and follow the surface contours as much as practical. Run exposed, parallel, or banked raceways together. Make bends in parallel or banked runs from the same center line so that the bends are parallel. Factory elbows may be used in banked runs only where they can be installed parallel. This requires that there be a change in the plane of the run such as from wall to ceiling and that the raceways be of the same size. In other cases provide field bends for parallel raceways. Route raceways as required by job conditions unless dimensioned positions are shown on Drawings. Verify exact locations of all raceways, pull boxes, and junction boxes; resolve any conflicts before installation. Give priority in available space to large steam mains, steam lines that pitch, waste lines, drain lines, large air ducts, and all structural steel, unless indicated otherwise. a. Maintain raceway and box separations per NEC. Elevation of Raceway: Where possible, install horizontal raceway runs above water and steam piping. Make bends and offsets so the inside diameter is not effectively reduced. Unless otherwise indicated, keep the legs of a bend in the same plane and the straight legs of offsets parallel. Bends shall exceed minimum bending radii of wire and cable to be run within. Install with not more than three 90 degree bends or more than 100 feet of straight conduit between pull boxes. Provide and install all additional pull boxes to meet this requirement. Minimum Spacing: 3 inches between raceways and cold water or waste piping, and 12 inches between raceways and parallel steam pipes, condensate pipes, hot water pipes and air ducts. Do not place raceway less than one inch apart where they cross each other. Install to provide adequate grounding between all outlets and the established electrical system ground. Install to prevent water pockets. Make no horizontal raceway runs in masonry walls. Raceway Installation: 1. Prevent foreign matter from entering raceways by using temporary closure protection. 2. Protect stub-ups from damage where conduits rise from floor slabs. Arrange so curved portion of bends is not visible above the finished slab. 3. Raceways embedded in slabs: a. Refer to Division 03 Section "Cast-in Place Concrete" for limitation on placement of conduit in concrete. b. Tie raceways to reinforcing rods or otherwise secure them to prevent sagging or shifting during concrete placement. c.

Provide minimum 11/2 inch concrete cover over conduits. g. Do not lap or cross conduits at any point. h. Do not tie conduits to headed shear studs. Place conduits parallel to beams with headed shear studs at least 18 inches away from studs.

Make watertight with asphaltum or other approved compound applied to conduit joints before assembled. Join raceways with fittings and make joints tight. Use bonding jumpers to provide electrical continuity of the raceway system for all metallic feeder conduits one inch and larger. Make raceway terminations tight. Where terminations are subject to vibration, use bonding bushings or wedges to assure electrical continuity. Use insulating bushings to protect conductors. Terminations: Where raceways are terminated with locknuts and bushings, align the raceway to enter squarely and install the locknuts with dished part against the box. Where terminations cannot be made secure with one locknut, use two locknuts, one inside and one outside the box. Where terminating in threaded hubs, screw the raceway or fitting tight into the hub so the end bears against the wire protection shoulder. Where chase nipples are used, align the raceway so the coupling is square to the box, and tighten the chase nipple so no threads are exposed. Complete installation of electrical raceways before starting installation of conductors within raceways. Install a bonding wire in all flexible metal conduits. Install pull wires in empty raceways. Use No. 14 AWG zinc-coated steel or monofilament plastic line having not less than 200 lbs. tensile strength. Leave not less than 12 inches of slack at each end of the pull wire.
