DESIGN DELIVERABLES

The first drawing in the set. Contains the project title, owner information, architect/engineer information, project address, applicable codes, drawing index, and revision history. Sets the professional standard for the entire drawing package and provides the reviewer with an immediate overview of scope.

Appears on every sheet in the drawing set. Includes firm name & logo, project name, client/owner, project address, drawing title, sheet number, revision dates, engineer of record seal, and applicable jurisdiction. Must comply with state licensing board requirements for professional engineer stamp placement.

A complete index of all sheets in the electrical drawing package. Lists every sheet number, drawing title, revision status, and issue date. Used by plan reviewers, contractors, and inspectors to verify a complete set has been submitted. Typically placed on or adjacent to the cover sheet. Updated with each revision cycle.

The hierarchy of the entire electrical distribution system on one schematic. Shows utility service entrance, main switchgear, distribution panels, transformers, generators, transfer switches, and sub-panels with conductor sizes, conduit types, breaker ratings, and fault current values. Required for all permits and AHJ review. The most critical document in the set.

NEC Article 220 demand calculations determining the minimum required service size. Itemizes all connected loads — lighting, receptacles, HVAC, motors, and special loads — applies applicable demand factors, and sizes the service entrance conductors and overcurrent protection accordingly. Required by most AHJs before permit issuance. Supports SLD conductor and breaker sizing.

Tabular listing of every circuit in each electrical panel. Includes circuit number, circuit description, breaker ampacity, phase assignment, voltage, connected VA, and demand VA. Identifies spare and space breakers. Used extensively by electricians during installation and by inspectors during rough-in and final inspection. One schedule per panel in the project.

Tabular schedule identifying every disconnect switch in the project. Lists equipment tag, description, ampacity, voltage, phase, NEMA enclosure rating (1, 3R, 4X, etc.), fused vs non-fused type, and the panel/circuit feeding it. Required for mechanical equipment coordination with HVAC, refrigeration, elevator, and other motor-driven equipment. Simplifies field installation and AHJ inspection.

Master schedule of all major electrical equipment in the project: switchgear, transformers, generators, ATS units, UPS systems, motor control centers, and specialty equipment. Details manufacturer, model number, kVA/kW rating, voltage, phases, mounting type, dimensions, weight, and electrical characteristics. Coordinates with mechanical and structural drawings for equipment placement and support.

Shows the exterior electrical infrastructure on the civil/survey base. Locates the utility transformer pad, meter socket, service entrance conduit routing, underground conduit runs with depth and size notes, exterior lighting pole locations with photometric zones, EV charging infrastructure, generator location, and fuel system layout. Coordinates with utility company requirements for point of connection.

Floor plan showing locations of all electrical power devices: duplex receptacles, dedicated circuits, GFCI outlets, 208V equipment connections, floor boxes, data/power poles, and specialty power outlets. Includes homerun arrows indicating which panel and circuit feeds each device group. Coordinated with furniture plan and equipment layout. Separate power plan from lighting plan for clarity.

Power and lighting plans with wiring shown graphically — circuit home runs, loop wiring between devices, switch legs, and 3-way traveler conductors. Each circuit is labeled with panel designation and circuit number. Wire tick marks indicate conductor count and size. Allows electricians to understand exact circuit groupings without referring to a separate wiring diagram. Critical for rough-in inspection and panel balancing.

Complete catalog of every fixture type used on the project. Each type is assigned a letter designation used on the lighting plan. Columns include fixture description, mounting type, wattage, lumens, color temperature (CCT), CRI, dimming protocol, manufacturer, and model number. Developed in coordination with the photometric analysis to verify compliance with IES footcandle targets and energy codes. Also covers emergency fixture battery specifications.

Life safety plan showing locations of all exit signs, emergency egress lighting heads, and battery-backed fixtures. Confirms all egress paths receive minimum 1 footcandle average (IBC §1006 / NFPA 101). Shows emergency panel circuits, connection to building generator or central battery system, and 90-minute battery backup requirements. Reviewed by fire marshal and AHJ during plan check. Mandatory for all commercial projects.

Numbered callout symbols placed directly on floor plan drawings that reference a coordinated legend. Used instead of cluttering plans with long text strings. Keynotes describe conduit sizes and routing, mounting heights, special installation conditions, connection requirements, and references to detail drawings. Keeps plans legible at standard drawing scales while providing complete installation information for the electrical contractor.

Large-scale construction details for non-standard or critical installations not captured at floor plan scale. Typical details include: conduit in slab, panel mounting height and clearances, underground conduit and pull box details, weatherproof penetration sealing, equipment housekeeping pad dimensions, seismic bracing for conduit, transformer clearances, and generator connection details. Referenced by keynote numbers on plan sheets.

Written technical requirements for materials and installation methods in CSI MasterFormat. Organized into Part 1 (General — scope, submittals, quality assurance), Part 2 (Products — acceptable manufacturers, materials standards, equipment ratings), and Part 3 (Execution — installation methods, testing, commissioning). Required when AHJ or owner requires project specs, or when drawings alone cannot convey material quality standards. Governs contractor substitution requests.

General notes sheet listing all applicable codes, standards, and jurisdictional amendments adopted by the local AHJ. Typically references NEC (current adopted edition), IBC, NFPA 72/101, ASHRAE 90.1, IECC, ADA/CBC, and local amendments. Includes design criteria assumptions, conductor ampacity table references, installation requirements, and engineer of record attestation. Serves as the legal basis for all design decisions in the drawing set.

DOE COMcheck software report demonstrating compliance with IECC / ASHRAE 90.1 for the electrical scope. Calculates interior lighting power density (LPD) in W/SF against allowed budgets by space type, verifies exterior lighting wattage against zone budgets, and confirms mandatory controls (occupancy sensors, daylighting controls, automatic shutoffs). Required by most AHJs as part of permit submission for commercial buildings. Generated from confirmed fixture schedule data.
