Renovation of a military facility in Richmond, Virginia. Completed plans call for the renovation of a military facility.

Update 1 June 2026: Late RFI: The Virginia Electrical Code is based on NFPA 70 (2020 Edition) with state amendments, adopted through the 2021 Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. NEC 230.70(A)(1) requires the service disconnecting means to be installed at a readily accessible location either outside the building or inside nearest the point of entrance of the service conductors. On Sheet E-110, the new service-rated disconnects ATS-A and ATS-B appear to be located in a room separated by a wall from the room where the service conductors enter the building. The service conductors appear to route across the wall prior to termination at the ATS units. Please confirm that the proposed configuration is compliant with NEC 230.70(A)(1), or advise if any modifications to the installation are required for compliance. Answer: This is a federal installation and therefore the UFC adopts the 2026 NEC, not the Virginia Electrical Code. All work must comply with the 2026 NEC. The building is not supplied by a utility and therefore, by definition in the NEC, the conductors entering the building are feeders, not service conductors. The equipment is not considered service equipment. 2026 NEC, 225.31(B) exception #1 allows the disconnecting means for the building to be installed in the location shown on the plans. RFI's: All building power outages are to take place on weekends, holiday breaks, or times when there will be no occupants in the building. Correct. As this building will be occupied, we cannot have power interruptions during normal working hours. Please confirm per the site visit comments - Contractor is not required to provide backup generators or backup power for weekend outages to take place. Confirmed.
