Electrical Requirements for Health Care Facilities
Forward
The Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) is responsible for enforcing all
building standards, codes, and regulations pertaining to health care facilities in the State.
The following document was compiled by the OSHPD electrical engineering staff as a guide for plan
review to verify compliance and is intended for OSHPD use. It highlights and summarizes the most
common requirements encountered in the review of health care facilities. All others who use this
information for any other purpose do so with the full knowledge that it may not contain every requirement
or change in policy and that the requirements are as interpreted by OSHPD.
All projects submitted on or after January 1, 2011 are subject to the 2010 California Electrical Code (CEC)
which is the 2008 National Electrical Code (NEC) with the 2010 California Amendments.
