1 Public Comment No. 2-NFPA [ Section No ] Unused Openings Unused openings, other than those intended for the operation of equipment, those intended for mounting purposes, or those permitted as part of the design for listed equipment, shall be closed to afford protection substantially equivalent to the wall of the equipment Where metallic plugs or plates are used with nonmetallic enclosures, they shall be recessed at least 6 mm ( 1/4 in.) from the outer surface of the enclosure. [70:110.12(A)] The entire section was not extracted in the first draft. It is important in the extraction to take the entire section and not parts. The partial extraction could change the meaning of the section. Otherwise the extraction was re-numbered to meet the different styles between NFPA 70 and this standard. First Revision No. 2-NFPA [New Section after 4.1.1] Submitter Full Name: Michael DeVore Organization: State Farm Insurance Company Submittal Date: Fri Mar 14 12:17:52 EDT 2014 Committee Accepted Resolution: SR-1-NFPA Statement: The entire section was not extracted in the first draft. The partial extraction could change the meaning of the section.
2 Public Comment No. 3-NFPA [ Section No ] Electrical Connections Because of different characteristics of dissimilar metals, devices such as pressure terminal or pressure splicing connectors and soldering lugs shall be identified for the material of the conductor and shall be properly installed and used Conductors of dissimilar metals shall not be intermixed in a terminal or splicing connector where physical contact occurs between dissimilar conductors (such as copper and aluminum, copper and copper-clad aluminum, or aluminum and copper-clad aluminum), unless the device is identified for the purpose and conditions of use Materials such as solder, fluxes, inhibitors, and compounds, where employed, shall be suitable for the use and shall be of a type that will not adversely affect the conductors, installation, or equipment. [70:110.14] It is important to extract an entire section. To do a partial extraction can cause loss of meaning from the original document. The section was re-numbered to meet the different style criteria between NFPA 70 and this standard. First Revision No. 2-NFPA [New Section after 4.1.1] Submitter Full Name: Michael DeVore Organization: State Farm Insurance Company Submittal Date: Fri Mar 14 12:30:44 EDT 2014 Committee Rejected Resolution: The additional language is not necessary to provide further detail of the requirement.
3 Public Comment No. 4-NFPA [ Section No ] Spaces About Electrical Equipment. Access and working space shall be provided and maintained about all electrical equipment to permit ready and safe operation and maintenance of such equipment [70: ].. A title is required by the Manual of Style as the other levels have a title in section Provided the extract citation at the end of the paragraph. First Revision No. 2-NFPA [New Section after 4.1.1] Submitter Full Name: Michael DeVore Organization: State Farm Insurance Company Submittal Date: Fri Mar 14 12:37:07 EDT 2014 Committee Accepted Resolution: SR-3-NFPA Statement: A title was added to comply with the NFPA Manual of Style. An extract citation to the NEC was provided at the end of the paragraph.
4 Public Comment No. 15-NFPA [ Section No ] The grounding electrode conductor shall be protected against physical damage as needed to ensure safeguard the integrity of the grounding electrode conductor. NFPA's Building Code Development Committee (BCDC) believes the revised text in this Public Comment is better because it simplifies the provision. The term "ensure" has several definitions which are onerous and impossible to enforce. The term safeguard captures the appropriate intent. First Revision No. 1-NFPA [Section No ] Submitter Full Name: Jim Muir Organization: Building Safety Division, Clark County, Washington Affilliation: NFPA's Building Code Development Committee (BCDC) Submittal Date: Thu May 15 13:35:01 EDT 2014 Committee Rejected but see related SR Resolution: SR-4-NFPA Statement: The term "safeguard" is more appropriate.
5 Public Comment No. 7-NFPA [ Section No ] Equipment Grounding Conductors. Conductor Identification. A conductor intended to be used as an equipment grounding conductor shall have a continuous identifying marker readily distinguishing it from the other conductor or conductors Equipment grounding conductors Conductors having a continuous green color or a continuous green color with one or more yellow stripes shall not be used for other than equipment grounding conductors Cords or cables consisting of integral insulation and a jacket without a nonintegral grounding conductor shall be permitted to be bare, covered, or insulated green Individually covered or insulated equipment grounding conductors shall have a continuous outer finish that is either green or green 3 The identifying marker shall consist of one of the methods in (A) or (B). ( A ) Colored Braid. A braid finished to show a continuous green color or a continuous green color with one or more yellow stripes Ungrounded and grounded conductors shall not be identified by the color green or green ( B ) Colored Insulation or Covering. For cords having no braids on the individual conductors, an insulation of a continuous green color or a continuous green color with one or more yellow stripes. [70: ] Despite the committee reason for FR#23, the section does not match NFPA 70 requirements. This public comment is to extract all of on equipment grounding. The section is re-numbered to match the different styles between NFPA 70 and this standard. First Revision No. 23-NFPA [Section No ] Submitter Full Name: Michael DeVore Organization: State Farm Insurance Company Submittal Date: Fri Mar 14 13:50:40 EDT 2014
6 Committee Rejected Resolution: The original language is adequate. See SR-5.
7 Public Comment No. 13-NFPA [ Section No ] Ungrounded Except for power-limited Class 2 or Class 3 cables, power-limited fire alarm cables, or communication cables containing only circuits operating at less than 50 volts where connected to equipment not required to be grounded, ungrounded and grounded conductors shall not be identified by the color green or green with one or more yellow stripes. This section does not reflect the exceptions permitted for green equipment grounding conductors in of the NEC, without which a housing inspector could require changes to low voltage system wiring, such as thermostats or other Class 2 systems. First Revision No. 23-NFPA [Section No ] Submitter Full Name: David Dini Organization: UL LLC Submittal Date: Mon May 12 15:01:31 EDT 2014 Committee Rejected but see related SR Resolution: SR-5-NFPA Statement: The requirement for identifying grounding conductors with the color green applies to Class I circuits not to ungrounded Class 2 or Class 3 circuits.
8 Public Comment No. 16-NFPA [ Section No ] Incandescent luminaires with open or partially enclosed lamps and pendent luminaires or lampholders shall not be Open incandescent lamps installed in clothes closets shall have required clearance from combustible materials. NFPA's Building Code Development Committee (BCDC) believes this provision should be to return to the original code text. We agree with the negative comment by Mr. DeVore. First Revision No. 9-NFPA [Section No ] Submitter Full Name: Jim Muir Organization: Building Safety Division, Clark County, Washington Affilliation: NFPA's Building Code Development Committee (BCDC) Submittal Date: Thu May 15 13:46:22 EDT 2014 Committee Resolution: Rejected Open incandescent lamps have not been permitted in clothes closets since the 1990 NEC. Due to potential fire issues, it is good practice to cover an open incandescent bulb in a closet.
9 Public Comment No. 8-NFPA [ Section No ] Closet Storage Space. The volume bounded by the sides and back closet walls and planes extending from the closet floor vertically to a height of 1.8 m (6 ft) or to the highest clothes-hanging rod and parallel to the walls at a horizontal distance of 600 mm (24 in.) from the sides and back of the closet walls, respectively, and continuing vertically to the closet ceiling parallel to the walls at a horizontal distance of 300 mm (12 in.) or the width of the shelf, whichever is greater; for a closet that permits access to both sides of a hanging rod, this space includes the volume below the highest rod extending 300 mm (12 in.) on either side of the rod on a plane horizontal to the floor extending the entire length of the rod. See Figure [70: 410.2] NOTE TO EDITOR: Insert NFPA 70 Figure here as Figure Luminaires in Clothes Closets. ( A ) Luminaire Types Permitted. Only luminaires of the following types shall be permitted in a closet: (1) Surface-mounted or recessed incandescent or LED luminaires with completely enclosed light sources (2) Surface-mounted or recessed fluorescent luminaires (3) Surface-mounted fluorescent or LED luminaires identified as suitable for installation within the closet storage space ( B ) Luminaire Types Not Permitted. Incandescent luminaires with open or partially enclosed lamps and pendent pendant luminaires or lampholders shall not be permitted. (C) Location. The minimum clearance between luminaires installed in clothes closets and the nearest point of a closet storage space shall be as follows: (1) 300 mm (12 in. ) for surface-mounted incandescent or LED luminaires with a completely enclosed light source installed on the wall above the door or on the ceiling. (2) 150 mm (6 in.) for surface-mounted fluorescent luminaires installed on the wall above the door or on the ceiling. (3) 150 mm (6 in.) for recessed incandescent or LED luminaires with a completely enclosed light source installed in the wall or the ceiling. (4) 150 mm (6 in.) for recessed fluorescent luminaires installed in the wall or the ceiling. (5) Surface-mounted fluorescent or LED luminaires shall be permitted to be installed within the closet storage space where identified for this use. [70: ] The text in FR#9 is incorrect and in conflict with NFPA 70. The proposed change is to extract the sections from NFPA 70 that apply to luminaires in closets. The extract is re-numbered to fit the different styles between NFPA 70 and this standard. First Revision No. 9-NFPA [Section No ] Submitter Full Name: Michael DeVore Organization: State Farm Insurance Company
10 0 Submittal Date: Fri Mar 14 14:00:40 EDT 2014 Committee Rejected Resolution: The existing requirement is adequate and does not need the additional detail proposed.
11 1 Public Comment No. 12-NFPA [ Section No ] Receptacles that fail a blade retention test, with using a retention tester, shall be replaced. The text is incorrect as stated since the comma then seems to apply the prepositional phrase to "receptacle" and not to the test. First Revision No. 26-NFPA [Section No ] Submitter Full Name: David Dini Organization: UL LLC Submittal Date: Mon May 12 14:37:13 EDT 2014 Committee Resolution: Rejected During the normal course of an inspection, receptacles that are worn are readily apparent without a retention tester.
12 2 Public Comment No. 17-NFPA [ Section No ] Receptacles that fail a blade retention test, with a retention tester, shall that are found to be worn to the extent that blade retention is affected shall be replaced. NFPA's Building Code Development Committee (BCDC) does not agree with First Revision #26, and does agree with the submitter of Public Input #7. It is not practical to expect home inspectors to carry an expensive tool for this purpose. During the normal course of a home inspection, recepticals that are worn are readlily apparent without such a tool. First Revision No. 26-NFPA [Section No ] Submitter Full Name: Jim Muir Organization: Building Safety Division, Clark County, Washington Affilliation: NFPA's Building Code Development Committee (BCDC) Submittal Date: Thu May 15 13:56:13 EDT 2014 Committee Rejected but see related SR Resolution: SR-6-NFPA Statement: During the normal course of an inspection, receptacles that are worn are readily apparent without the use of a retention tester.
13 3 Public Comment No. 9-NFPA [ Section No ] Receptacles that fail a blade retention test, with a retention tester, shall be replaced shall be replaced when worn to the extent that blade retention is affected. As discussed in committee meetings and the negative ballots for FR#26, there are no retention testers either listed or not. Accept public input #7 with editing for grammar. First Revision No. 26-NFPA [Section No ] Public Input No. 7-NFPA [Section No ] Submitter Full Name: Michael DeVore Organization: State Farm Insurance Company Submittal Date: Fri Mar 14 14:10:26 EDT 2014 Committee Rejected but see related SR Resolution: SR-6-NFPA Statement: During the normal course of an inspection, receptacles that are worn are readily apparent without the use of a retention tester.
14 Public Comment No. 10-NFPA [ Section No. 5.2 ] 5.2 Smoke Alarms and Carbon Monoxide Alarms Where smoke alarms and or carbon monoxide alarms are installed, they shall operate correctly when tested with their integral test function Smoke alarms shall be replaced when they fail to respond to operability tests and in no case shall they remain in service longer than 10 years from the date of manufacture Carbon monoxide alarms shall be replaced when the end-of-life signal is activated, the manufacturer s replacement date is reached, or when they fail to respond to operability tests Combination smoke/carbon monoxide alarms shall be replaced when the end-of-life signal activates or 10 years from the date of manufacture, whichever comes first The integrity of interconnected alarms shall be maintained AC-powered alarms shall not have been replaced with battery-powered alarms. Alarms that fail the integrated test in 5.2.1, shall be replaced. In section 5.2.1, the "and" was changed to "or" because the units could be separate or combined. The word "or" would include both cases whereas the word "and" does not. The rest of the section should be deleted because the inspector cannot readily obtain the information during an inspection as to the age of the detector, the original installation requirements, or whether the original units were AC or battery. Added simple language at to state that replacement is required if the unit fails the integral test. Public Input No. 6-NFPA [Section No. 5.2] First Revision No. 3-NFPA [Section No. 5.2] Submitter Full Name: Michael DeVore Organization: State Farm Insurance Company Submittal Date: Fri Mar 14 14:15:14 EDT 2014 Committee Rejected Resolution: The present language provides a better detailed requirement for the inspector. 4
15 Public Comment No. 14-NFPA [ Sections 5.2.1, 5.2.2, ] Sections 5.2.1, 5.2.2, Where smoke alarms and carbon monoxide alarms are installed, they the alarms shall operate correctly when tested with their integral test function Smoke alarms shall be replaced when they fail to respond to operability tests and in no case shall they an alarm remain in service longer than 10 years from the date of manufacture Carbon monoxide alarms shall be replaced when the end-of-life signal is activated, the manufacturer s replacement date is reached, or when they fail an alarm fails to respond to operability tests. Editorially replacing the word "they" with "alarm" in the accepted text more accurately represents the specific device used. First Revision No. 3-NFPA [Section No. 5.2] Submitter Full Name: David Dini Organization: UL LLC Submittal Date: Tue May 13 10:42:20 EDT 2014 Committee Rejected but see related SR Resolution: SR-7-NFPA Statement: Replacing the word "they" with "alarm" in the text more accurately represents the specific device used. 5
16 Public Comment No. 11-NFPA [ Section No. 5.5 ] 5.5 Support of Ceiling-Suspended (Paddle) Fans. Ceiling-suspended (paddle) fans shall be secured to the ceiling structure to allow the fan to operate as designed without visible vertical movement and with minimal vibration or wobble. supported independently of an outlet box or by listed outlet box or outlet box systems identified for the use and installed in accordance with through [70: ] Boxes at Ceiling-Suspended (Paddle) Fan Outlets. Outlet boxes or outlet box systems used as the sole support of a ceiling-suspended (paddle) fan shall be listed, shall be marked by their manufacturer as suitable for this purpose, and shall not support ceiling-suspended (paddle) fans that weigh more than 32 kg (70 lb) For outlet boxes or outlet box systems designed to support ceiling-suspended (paddle) fans that weigh more than 16 kg (35 lb), the required marking shall include the maximum weight to be supported Where spare, separately switched, ungrounded conductors are provided to a ceiling-mounted outlet box, in a location acceptable for a ceiling-suspended (paddle) fan in single-family, two-family, or multi-family dwellings, the outlet box or outlet box system shall be listed for sole support of a ceiling-suspended (paddle) fan [70:314.27(C)]. The change made by the committee in FR#11 is not consistent with the requirements of NFPA 70. Also, the proposed requirement is subjective and unenforceable. The language from NFPA 70 should be extracted. The extracted language was re-numbered to comply with the different styles between NFPA 70 and this standard. First Revision No. 11-NFPA [Section No. 5.5] Submitter Full Name: Michael DeVore Organization: State Farm Insurance Company Submittal Date: Fri Mar 14 14:25:36 EDT 2014 Committee Resolution: Rejected The proposed comment generally would require dis-assembly of the fan to verify which is beyond the scope of the standard. 6
