## Content
### 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.
