ELECTRICAL FIRES
If a fault develops, the current (and heat energy)
can increase to the extent that either the appliance
burns out, the connecting wiring overheats and
melts the plastic insulation or the plug and socket
may burn out.
An electrical fire then occur where the overheated
wiring, motor, plug, etc. are in contact with or close
to flammable or combustible material.

Universal Change
A universal change throughout the 2009
PEC is the replacement of computed
load and demand load with calculated
load. For example, the term demand
load is being replaced with calculated load
to improve clarity and to reduce
confusion, especially when related to
calculated load and demand factor.
The term calculated load includes demand
factor, the concepts of diversity, and
historical data.

3.10.1.6 Shielding
In this sections exception, the voltage
has been reduced from 8 kV to 2.4 kV for
use of unshielded conductors. Cables
operated at a voltage higher than 2.4 kV
will now be required to be shielded.
Many cable manufacturers specifically
recommend against the use of nonshielded cable above 2 kV because of
arcing problems and cables without
shielding have a very high failure rate.

Section 3.10.1.15(b)(4)
(4) Neutral Conductor.
a) A neutral conductor that carries only the unbalanced current
from other conductors of the same circuit shall not be required
to be counted when applying the provisions of
Section3.10.1.15(b)(2)(a).
b) In a 3-wire circuit consisting of two phase wires and the
neutral of a 4-wire, 3-phase wye-connected system, a common
conductor carries approximately the same current as the lineto-neutral load currents of the other conductors and shall be
counted when applying the provisions of Section
3.10.1.15(b)(2)(a).
c) On a 4-wire, 3-phase wye circuit where the major portion of the
load consists of nonlinear loads, harmonic currents are
present in the neutral conductor; the neutral shall therefore be
considered a current-carrying conductor.
85
Notes
For metal auxiliary gutters, 3.66.2.14(a)
indicates that derating is not required so long as
the number of current-carrying conductors at
any cross section does not exceed 30. A similar
statement is included for sheet metal wireways
in 3.76.2.13.
Derating for the number of current-carrying
conductors in non-metallic auxiliary gutters and
wireways is required, beginning at four-current
carrying conductors, because conductors in nonmetallic enclosures do not dissipate heat as well
as those in sheet-metal enclosures.

Introduction
Art. 6.95 contains many requirements to
keep that supply of water uninterrupted.
For example:
1. Locating the pump so as to minimize its
exposure to fire.
2. Ensuring that the fire pump and its jockey
pump have a reliable source of power.
3. It makes sense to keep fire pump wiring
independent.
BOARD OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
PROFESSIONAL REGULATION COMMISSION
87
Introduction
Other requirements seem wrong at first
glance, until you remember why the fire
pump is there in the first place.
For example:
1. The disconnect must be lockable in the
closed position.
2. Fire pumps power circuits cannot have
automatic protection against overload.
88
Introduction
Its better to run the fire pump until
its winding melt, than to save the fire
pump and lose the facility
And the intent of Article 6.95 is to
save the facility.
89
6.95.1.1 Scope
a) Covered
1) Electric power sources and interconnecting
circuits
2) Switching and control equipment dedicated
to fir pump drivers
b) Not Covered
1) The performance, maintenance, and
acceptance testing of the fire pump system,
and the internal wiring of the components
of the system
2) Pressure maintenance (jockey or makeup)

Dedicated transformer and overcurrent

three requirements.
1. The transformer must be size to at least 125%
of the sum of the loads.
2. The transformer primary overcurrent device
must be at least a specified minimum size.
3. The transformer secondary must not contain any
overcurrent device whatsoever.
