The In stallation Suppli er shall ensure, as p art of t he evalu
ation of t he in stallation, that al l equipment added, rearranged
or modified is properly installed and in conformance with AT&T
installation specifications. The Installation Supplier shall
ensure, as part of the evaluation of the installation, that all
work has been done in accordance with the detail specifications or
approved changes to the detail specifications. This se ction covers
gen eral requirements related to safety, environmental, care of
building facilities and premi ses, compliance with la ws, rules and
o rdinances, an d equi pment preparation for installation. Changes
in this issue Section B are summarized in Table B-1. Many of the i
tems addressed in thi s section (e.g., buil ding facilities,
building conditions, et c.) will require joint
AT&T/Installation Supplier review in advance of the actual
installation activity. Sufficient time will be incorporated into
the total job schedule to allow for alterations, additions (prior
to the equipm ent i nstallation timetabl e) and /or the ad ditional
expe nse app roval b y AT&T Equipment Engineer. For warranty
purpo ses, t he e quipment manufa cturer m ay hav e do cumented in
stallation requirements pertaini ng to the foot pri nt of t he equ
ipment. If these re quirements conflict with the requirements given
in ATT-TP-76300, the manufacturers requirements shall apply. The
Installation Supplier shall provide at a minimum, a Level 3
representative (see Section C) on-site to o versee any non-volatile
work performed by the Installation Suppliers nonapproved
subcontractors. The Installati on Supplie r shall p rovide a Level
4 repre sentative (see Se ction C) on -site to oversee any volatile

arrival without making other suitable arrangements for removing
combustible materials from inside the building. 1.2.12 During a
construction project, all combustible packaging shall be removed
from all materials kept in communications equipment areas of a
central office. When this is not possible, e.g. a wood cable reel,
these materials shall be stored under an approved tarp (as outlined
