The columns headed ‘S’ apply to runs of conduits which have distance not exceeding 4.25 m
between draw boxes and which do not deflect form the straight by an angle of more than 15
degrees. The columns headed ‘B’ apply to runs of conduit which deflect form the straight by an
angle of more than 15 degrees. Conduits sizes are the nominal external diameters.
3.10 Laying of Conduits
Conduits shall be laid either concealed in walls and ceilings or on surface on walls and ceilings or

surface conduiting in this contract.
3.11 Concealed Conduiting

Concealed conduits in concrete members shall be laid before casting, in the upper portion of slabs
or otherwise as may be instructed, so as to embedd the entire run of conduits and ceiling outlet
boxes with a cover of minimum 12mm concrete. Conduits shall be adequately tied to the

Entire concealed conduit work in concrete members and in brick work shall be carried out in
close coordination with progress of civil works. Conduits in concrete members shall be laid
before casting and conduits in brick work shall be laid before plastering. Should it become
necessary to embeded conduits in already cast concrete members, suitable chase shall be cut in
concrete for the purpose. For minimizing this cutting, conduits of lesser diameter than 25 mm and
outlet boxes of lesser depth than 50 mm could be used by the Contractor for such extensions only
after obtaining specific approval from NBCC/Client. For embedding conduits in finished and
plastered brick work, the chase would have to be made in the finished brick work. After fixing
conduit in chases, chases shall be made good in most workmanlike manner to match with the
original finish.
Cutting chases in finished concrete or finished plastered brick work for embedding conduits and
