Cleveland Clinic Design Guidelines: Division 26 - Electrical

The following pages contain guidelines for the design and construction of new and renovated facilities at all domestic Cleveland Clinic locations. They shall be used by A/E firms in the preparation of drawings and specifications for construction of facilities. The general purpose of each Design Guideline is to provide minimal criteria for design, materials, and equipment at Cleveland Clinic facilities regarding Codes and FM Global compliance, warranty, approved products, execution and uniformity. The Guidelines are not Contract Specifications, but used to prepare more detailed, project specific specifications. The Guidelines are intended to be used to address system design aspects of equipment that Cleveland Clinic desires to standardize among facilities, and identify prohibited materials and construction practices. The use of these Guidelines is mandatory for all design or maintenance projects. Deviations are discouraged. If project conditions arise which require a deviation, it shall be thoroughly documented by the user and submitted to Cleveland Clinic for review and approval using the Design Standards Revision Request document. Additionally, all Cleveland Clinic staff, architects, engineers, and contractors are encouraged to participate in the ongoing development of these guidelines by communicating any suggestions by use of the Revision Request document.
