NOTES:

(a) Maximum quantity of three-conductor

power supply cords (3/8" [9.5mm]
maximum diameter).

(b) Maximum quantity of No. 12 AWG

conductors allowed when a 1/2" through
1" trade size liquid tight steel conduit with
cast steel 90º elbow is connected to
access cover. When conductors larger
than No. 12 AWG are used, the aggregate
cross-sectional area of the copper
conductors shall not exceed the aggregate
cross-sectional area of
No. 12 AWG conductors.

(c) Maximum quantity of No. 24 AWG

conductors (4-pair communication
cable has eight conductors; 25-pair
communication cable has 50 conductors).
When conductors larger than No. 24
AWG are used, the aggregate cross­sectional area of the copper conductors
shall not exceed the aggregate cross­sectional area of No. 24 AWG conductors.
Maximum size of any communication
cable is not to exceed 25-pair (3/8"
[9.5mm] maximum diameter).

(d) Maximum quantity of No. 24 AWG

conductors (4-pair communication
cable has eight conductors; 25-pair
communication cable has 50 conductors)
allowed when a 1/2" through 1- 1/4"
trade size liquid tight conduit with cast
steel 90º elbow is connected to access
cover. When conductors larger than
No. 24 AWG are used, the aggregate
cross-sectional area of the copper
conductors shall not exceed the aggregate
cross-sectional area of No. 24 AWG
conductors. Maximum size of any
communication cable is not to exceed
25-pair (3/8" [9.5mm] maximum diameter).

(e) Where local codes permit, conduit

may be omitted when used for
communication type cables. A steel
conduit fitting or a nipple that extends
a minimum distance of 1" [25.4 mm]
beyond surface of cover assembly must
be utilized. Protect wires from damage by
installing a bushing suitable for use with
the type of fitting used. The diameter of
the conduit fitting opening for the passage
of cables shall be no more than 1/8 in.
larger than the diameter of the cable.
Use a suitable fire-resistive caulking such
as 3M Part No. CP 25WB to seal openings
around cables larger than 1/8 in.
