checklist that pertain to the project shall be checked, all other items shall be marked not applicable (N/A).
3 ____ Plans shall be neat and legible, and shall be all the same size. See Annex B.
4
____
Plans shall be 1/8" scale (1/ 8” = 1’-0”). Provide a graphical scale on all drawings showing floor plans (see example
in Section A-3 and Annex B-FA2, FA3). For drawings other than a scale of 1/8”, provide clear template based
on the scale of the drawings for all devices.
5
____
A project with more than one sheet/drawing, provide a list of all plans stating sheet number and description of the
plan. Provide the list of plans on the first electrical sheet/drawing. See Annex B-FA1.
6
____
All text on the plans shall be at least 0.125" in height.
Exceptions: Text for superscripts, and subscripts shall be at least 0.1” in height.
7 ____ All plans shall have the information shown in the example title block in Section A-1. See Annex B-FA1.
