raceways, devices, and other equipment comprising the voice/open data
system.

## 1.02 [REFERENCE]{.underline}

A. NFPA 70 National Electrical Code.

> Article 800 Communication circuits.
>
> Article 725 Remote-control, Signaling and power-limited circuits.

B. References in this section for raceways, junction boxes, cabinets,
and device boxes as well as any other system required to support the
installation for the voice/open data system shall be specified in other
sections of SNL\'s STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS.

## l.03 [QUALITY ASSURANCE]{.underline}

A. All material and installation shall meet the requirements of the
National Electric Code (latest edition).

B. All material installed shall be installed for the purpose it was
intended.

C. All material, when applicable, shall be approved by an OSHA
Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory.

## l.04 [RELATED DRAWINGS]{.underline}

A. The electrical drawings shall delineate the voice/open data system by
locations of outlets, cable size, terminal, cabinet size and locations.

B. Raceways shown on the drawings are not intended to show all bends,
kicks, offsets, and couplings.

# PART 2 - PRODUCTS

## 2.01 [GENERAL]{.underline}

A. Products will be specified by industry standard names unless

buildings including cables installed in a raceway shall be exterior type
suitable for direct burial conforming to REA specifications: PE-39,
PE-38.

B. Unless otherwise noted on drawings, all cable to voice/open data
shall be three each, four pair, 24 gauge, unshielded telephone cable,
one each 4-fiber multimode fiber optic cable and one each 4-fiber
single-mode fiber optic cable.

C. Cable shall be supplied on reels of continuous lengths without
splices. The wires in each cable shall follow the color codes shown on
Table 1.

## 2.03 [VOICE/OPEN DATA OUTLET DEVICES]{.underline}

A. Unless otherwise noted on other construction drawings, the Voice/Open
