## Charlotte South End Hotel Spec Interpretation
Spec interpretation notes for [[charlotte-south-end-hotel]]
with clarification by [[joel-jansen]]:
### EMT Fittings
> [!quote] Spec 260510 2.4(E)
> EMT - Electrical metallic tubing, "thin wall" zinc coated steel, enameled interior, ANSI C80.3, UL-797,
> assembled using concrete tight and rain tight gland-ring compression threaded type fittings
> except where alternate type fittings are allowable by the NEC
> and authorities have jusrisdiction \[sic\].
> [!quote] Spec 260510 2.4(N)(2)
> EMT connectors - Provide gland ring compression threaded fittings, except-
> * a. Concrete tight double set screw type connectors
> are acceptable in 2 1/2-inch and larger sizes
> in dry locations only.
> [!quote] Joel Jansen 2026-03-10 (pp.)
> Take off as specified
### Liquid-Tight Conduit
> [!quote] Spec 260510 2.4(G)
> Liquid-tight flexible metallic raceway
> shall be similar to standard flexible steel conduit
> except encased in liquid tight neoprene outer jacket.
No definition is provided for a liquid-tight flexible non-metallic raceway
> [!quote] Spec 260510 2.4(G)(7) (text decoration added)
> Provide _liquid-tight flexible conduit_
> for each motor and rotating device for power and control, ~~computer room~~[^1]
> and for other equipment requiring adjustments or removal for service
> in mechanical rooms or where subject to moisture or weather.
> [!quote] Joel Jansen 2026-03-10 (pp.)
> Assume LFMC.
[^1]: I feel fairly confident this is erroneous.
### Voltage Drop
> [!quote] Spec 260510 2.2(C)(4) (text decoration added)
> Sizing of conductors and conduits
> shall be solely the responsibility of the Contractor
> and shall be based on the NEC, [[nfpa-70_310_conductors_for_general_wiring|Article 310]].
> Ampacity shall be equal to, or greater than, the required load specified.
> ==Voltage drop shall be no greater than that allowed by the NEC.==
> [!quote] Dwg. E00-00 "GENERAL PRICING NOTES" Note 9
> PROVIDE ALLOWANCE TO UPSIZE FEEDERS/BRANCH CIRCUITS
> (OVER 100 FEET FOR 120/208V, OVER 200 FEET FOR 277/480V)
> FOR A MAXIMUM OF 3% VOLTAGE DROP.
### Lighting Control
#### Corridors
Corridors may or may not have included digital control
> [!quote] LEED Checklist, item "Interior Lighting" (Project Manual p. 23)
> Option 1: **Lighting Control:**
> Provide adjustable lighting controls
> for **90% of individual occupant spaces**
> with at least 3 lighting levels or scenes (on, off, mid-level).
> Provide control for **all shared multi-occupant spaces**.
Checklist assumes this point.

> OCCUPANCY SENSORS TO DIM CORRIDOR LTG TO 50% WHEN NO OCCUPANCY
> [!quote] Dwg. E06-01 "LIGHTING CONTROL NARRATIVE"
> **SPACE TYPE** Corridor is shown only with captive key card control
#### Units
> [!quote] LD03-XX Typical Master Switch Callout
> MASTER - TO CONTROL ENTRY AND ROOM ONLY.
> ELECTRICAL ENGINEER TO SPECIFY ENERGY CODE COMPLIANT “MASTER OFF”
> FOR THE REQUIRED GUESTROOM LOADS.

> (4) Touchscreen,
> (112) QS Wired Keypads,
> (2) Partition Sensor,
> (31) Wired Occupancy Sensor,

***
> [!quote] Proposal 2025-12-12, Pricing Summary
> Lighting Controls Lutron (turnkey) $ 850,000
Assuming that this line includes master switches
based on sum of quote and switch allowance
> [!quote] PDR Lutron Lighting Control Quote 2025-12-10, Pricing Summary Turnkey
> Lighting Control: Lutron $ 738,400.00
### EV Chargers
> [!quote] Proposal 2025-12-12, Alternates
> Add: (21) EV-Capable and (3) EV-Installed per Building Connected $ 38,000
Panel LG's schedule (E06-13)
shows (10) 40A/2P circuits
with description "EV CHARGER".
These circuits are not shown on the electrical set,
nor are any chargers besides.
