ScopeNational Electrical Installation Standards (NEIS) are designed to improve communication among specifiers, purchasers, and suppliers of electrical const

11、ruction services. They define a minimum baseline of quality and workmanship for installing electrical products and systems. NEIS are intended to be referenced in contract documents for electrical construction projects. The following language is recommended:Industrial heat tracing systems shall be in

12、stalled in accordance with NECA 202-2013, Standard for Installing and Maintaining Industrial Heat Tracing Systems (ANSI).Use of NEIS is voluntary, and the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) assumes no obligation or liability to users of this publication. Existence of a standard shall

13、 not preclude any member or non member of either organization from specifying or using alternate construction methods permitted by applicable regulations.This publication is intended to comply with the edition of the National Electrical Code (NEC) in effect at the time of publication. Because they a

14、re quality standards, NEIS may in some instances go beyond the minimum safety requirements of the NEC. It is the responsibility of users of this publication to comply with state and local electrical codes when installing electrical products and systems.Suggestions for revisions and improvements to t

15、his standard are welcome.

34、equired parts and construction methods for installing electrical heat tracing systems.n 41. Scope3.1 Check the Pipe to be Heat Traceda) Verify that the pipe has been pressure-tested, and that all equipment and supports are installed.b) Verify that any paint or coatings used on the pipe are dry.c) Wa

35、lk the pipe system and plan the routing of the heating cable on the pipe. Note the accessibility of all parts of the line, including power locations.d) Verify construction welding has been completed in the area.e) Remove any sharp edges or burrs that could damage the heating cable.3.2 Plan the Insta

36、llationCompare design drawings with the actual pipe and note any differences in: Pipe length and pipe sizes Number of valves, indicator gauges, flanges, and other components Number of pipe supports NOTE: These may not be marked on the design drawing, but there should be a note indicating the amount

37、of heating cable designed into each circuit for pipe supports.Ensure that the heat tracing system meets minimum requirements of NEC Article 427 in addition to the specific requirements for hazardous (classified) locations as specified Articles 500 through 516. 3.3 Mark Location of Terminationsa) Whi

38、le walking the pipe, mark the location of power connections, splices, and tees on the pipe with a vivid-color spray paint or a marker.b) In cases where the connection kit cannot be mounted on the pipe, construct brackets or other supports.3. Pre-Installation Checks5 n1. Scope4.1 Receiving, Storing,

39、Protecting, and Delivering4.1.1 Receiving material on sitea) Unload carefully, observing all packing label warnings.b) Use forklifts or other loading equipment only for palletized and large reel shipment.c) Leaving protective coverings in place as much as possible, open and inspect the heating cable

40、 and components for in-transit damage completely and, as quickly as possible, initiate recovery of loss due to shipping damage. Undamaged materials should be carefully re-packed unless intended for immediate installation. NOTE: Depending on specifications, company policy, or project circumstances, i

41、t may be necessary to receive, unpack and check all material at the company shop or other staging area, in which case careful repackaging is essential.d) Verify receipt of manufacturers installation instruction literature on electrical heat tracing systems and the maintenance of the systems.e) Verif

42、y the heating cable catalog number and quantity against the bill of materials. The heating cable catalog number is typically printed on the cable insulation or over jacket for parallel cables shown in Figures 1.1(b) and 1.1(c) or on a permanent label for series cables shown in Figures 1.1(d) and 1.1

43、(e). See Figure 4.1.1(e).f) For braided heating cable, measure the cable insulation resistance for each reel by using the procedure outlined in 12.1.2.4.1.2 Cable reel or carton marking requirementsThe carton, container, spool, or reel in or on which the heating device is delivered should be marked

Especially avoid areas where water accumulate or where significant airborne dust or dirt is present. If a clean, dry location is not

48、available, store material on pallets or other means to raise above floor and possible water levels, and wrap in protective plastic sheeting.b) Stack or otherwise store equipment carefully to prevent damage. Observe warnings and stacking instructions on packaging or shipping materials.c) Do not stack

49、 boxes that are partially crushed, even if the products are intact.d) Should any event occur, such as a water leak, which could damage stored material, immediately re-inspect it and obtain replacements for damaged products.e) Protect the ends of all heat tracing cables to prevent water entrance and migration in the heating cable.4.1.4 Moving material on sitea) In general, move heat tracing cable reels and other materials as few times as possible.b) Move material by hand, dolly, or other device in a manner so as not to damage mat
