# Subfeeds
|
|
|
|
## Sequence
|
|
|
|
### 1. Estimate preparation
|
|
|
|
1. Read about the project specifications and construction type
|
|
* Delivery Method: (Plans & Specs, Design Build, Design Assist, Preliminary Budget)
|
|
* Deck Thickness
|
|
* Corridor Ceiling type
|
|
|
|
2. In the drawings, locate:
|
|
* Unit Panel Schedules
|
|
* Unit Load Calculations
|
|
* Riser Diagram
|
|
* Subfeed schedule (if present)
|
|
|
|
### 2. Takeoff
|
|
|
|
1. Determine wiring method
|
|
|
|
| Construction Type | Wiring Method | Subfeed Options |
|
|
| ----------------- | ------------- | --------------- |
|
|
| 1,2 | MC Cable | MC, PVC, EMT |
|
|
| 3,4,5 | NM Cable | SER, EMT |
|
|
|
|
%%
|
|
TODO: Create flow chart for wiring methods.
|
|
Some cases to mention:
|
|
* Deck thickness (minimum 3x conduit outer diameter)
|
|
* Renovations (may not be able to run in slab)
|
|
%%
|
|
|
|
2. Route subfeeds to the Meter Centers using appropriate adder lengths

|
> Identify if and where typicals can be used
|
|
|
|
3. Assign material to lengths and apply Voltage drop if applicable
|
|
|
|
4. Pigtails and Wireway Troughs if applicable
|
|
|
|
### 3. Extension (Review and Checking)
|
|
|
|
1. Use the extension tab to determine the Correct Quantity
