1. PURPOSE
The purpose of this specification is to define the characteristics to be met by the AC and
DC Panelboards for the Camisea Project.
Also all those elements not expressly indicated in this specification but which are necessary
for a correct operation of the equipment will form part of the supply.
It is understood that definitions given herewith point the objectives aimed but not the way
of achieving them, the latter being the sole responsibility of the manufacturer.
Also part of the supply will be the number of copies required of all documentation
(drawings, instructions, manuals, etc.) which is necessary for the installation, start-up,
operation and maintenance of this equipment.
The vendor will give a detail of the deviations his proposal may contain respect the
requirements of this specification and will prepare for this purpose, a list of such deviations
indicating reasons for the same.
The vendor will indicate the characteristics of the material offered and for this purpose will
fill in all copies of the data sheets that have been attached, adding, in a separate sheet, all
other information he may consider necessary to mention.

2. CODES, REGULATIONS AND STANDARDS

The supply will be in accordance with the latest issues of the following standard:
 NEMA PB1 Panelboards.
 NFPA 70 National Electrical Code.
 NEMA AB1 Molded-Case Circuit Breakers and Molded-Case Switches.
 UL 67 Panelboards.
 UL 50 Cabinets and Boxes.
 NEMA 250 Enclosures for Electrical Equipment (1000 V maximum).
