examine the site and familiarize himself with all existing conditions such as utility service,
locations, and materials. No extra compensation will be allowed because of a misunderstanding
as to the amount of work involved or lack of knowledge of existing conditions. Also consult
drawings and specifications of other trades for correlating.
02.0 DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS
02.1 These specifications and the corresponding drawings form a set of Plans for the Electrical work

site. Transfer all field changes to one (1) clean set at time of substantial completion and submit
to Engineer prior to final acceptance.
02.4 In specifying particular materials and/or methods, the intent is to indicate the minimum standard
of quality acceptable to the Owner. In all cases where these contract documents do not meet the
minimum standards of the existing federal, state and local codes and local regulations and
requirements, then those governing codes, regulations and requirements shall prevail.
02.5 The term "circuit" as used in these Specifications shall be understood to include all devices as
well as the interconnecting conductors necessary to provide a complete electrical train from
