# Electrical Takeoff
> [!important]
> Complete [[pre-takeoff-research]],

> Use [[heating-designations]] for uncertain scope.
## Lighting Control
By PDI convention, [[lighting-controls-takeoff]] are generally "Electrical", not "Lighting".
## Receptacles
## Floor Boxes
### Poke-Thru's
## Homeruns
### Lighting
Takeoff homeruns in Building breakdowns,
even serving Amenity spaces.

## Mechanical Connections
`COMMON ASSEMBLIES`/`MECHANICAL CONNECTIONS ...`/...
### Stair Pressurization Fans
Assume branch circuit conductors must be protected
per [[fire-resistive-wiring-methods-takeoff]].
### Roof Mounted Equipment
Unit condensing units
Put homeruns on the `Area` of the dwelling unit.
Put connections on the `Area` of the CU.
.../`CONDENSOR HOME RUNS`
.../`CU CONDENSER SLEEVE W/ FLEX - NO HMRN WIRE`
`NO SLEEVE`:
Routed through a "doghouse"
(a large weatherproof opening)
with several other feeds.
Used where drilling openings for individual sleeves
would be impractical.
`PVC SLEEVE`, `EMT SLEEVE`:
Routed up through the roof,
(optionally through a disconnect)
with flex to the equipment.
Equipment Racks: Max 20 disconnects per rack

### Trash Chute
**Horizontal:**
* Check if shown on power drawings as mech connection
* If not, use 100ft length
**Vertical (Riser):**
* Takeoff: `COMMON ASSEMBLIES`/`MISC ASSEMBLIES`/`TRASH CHUTE RISER CIRCUIT...`
* Uncheck Link 'Enable Livecount'
* Takeoff in Typical
* Length = average floor to floor height
