+### Terminations
+
+When building
+* [[#Panelboards]]
+* [[#Switchboards]]
+add **branch terminations** according to an example from the schedules.
+**Do not include feeder terminations.**
+
+## By Equipment Type
+
+> [!tip] When in Doubt
+> If the equipment is not listed below,
+> use a distribution panel of equal amps.
+
+### CT Cabinets
+
+???
+
+### SPD's/TVSS's
+
+> Name = "SPD"
+
+Labor only.
+
+Specific item is not important, but I use
+`SPLITTERS / SOCKETS / CABINETS`/`METER SOCKETS & CABINETS`/`METERING CURRENT TRANSFORMER`
+(Labor = 1.5hrs)
+for consistency.
+
+### Submeters/Power Monitors
+
+> Name = "Power Monitor"
+
+See [[switchgear#SPD's/TVSS's]]
+
+### Switchboards
+
+> Name = "Switchboard - 2000A, 4-Section"
+
+### Panelboards
+
+> Name = "Panelboard - 600A, 2-Section"
+
+`DISTRIBUTION`/`DIST PANELS & UNIT LOAD CENTERS`/...
+
+### Disconnects and Enclosed Circuit Breakers
+
+`COMMON ASSEMBLIES`/`DISTRIBUTION`/`MANUAL DISCONNECTS`/...
+
+### Generators
+
+> Name = "Generator - 250kW, Diesel"
+
+Add `DISTRIBUTION FITTINGS`/`GENERATOR SET UP`.
+
+### Generator Connection Cabinets
+
+> Name = "GCC - 200A"
+
+Use a Distribution Panel of equal amps.
+Or a transfer switch.
+
+### Transfer Switches
+
+> Name = "Transfer Switch - 400A"
+
+#### Transfer Switches 1200A+
+
+Use 1200A and add an additional `TRANSFER SWITCH` item
+to make up the remaining amps.
+
+### Meter Centers
+
+> Name = "Meter Center - 800A, 16-Can"
+
+`SWITCHGEAR & METER CENTERS`/`METER CENTERS`/`... METERING SECTION`
+
+Adjust Factor 1 for meter stacks, delete zeroed items.
