The Coral IPx Office system should be installed in restricted access areas (dedicated
equipment rooms, equipment closets, etc.) in accordance with articles 110-16, 110-17,
and 110-18 of the national electric code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Access to the system should be limited and controlled to prevent unauthorized access.
The system uses hazardous working voltages and extremely high short circuit
currents, and the area must be protected against damage by, and injury to, unqualified
personnel.
Due to these considerations, an installation area must be chosen in accordance with
the following guidelines:
1. Verify that the installation area is clean, dry, and protected from weather
extremes.
2. Verify that the floor of the installation area is covered with linoleum, vinyl,
ceramic, wooden flooring, or polished sealed concrete. Carpeting is not
acceptable.
3. Verify that the ceiling of the installation area is finished or treated to prevent
particle discharge.
4. Verify that the installation area is well lit, and that the light is uniformly
diffused without shadows. Adequate lighting should provide a comfortable
reading level and allow for wire insulator color identification without undue
eye fatigue.
Lighting should be comparable to an office work environment, with a
minimum level of 70 foot-candles at each work surface. As a general rule, in a
room with an 8 ft (2.5m) ceiling, one 48 inch fluorescent tube provides
sufficient illumination for 20-25 sq. ft. (1.9-2.4 m
2 ).
