Licensing Definition – a permission granted by competent authority to engage in a practice of profession or business or in an activity. A PEE who designed, signed, and sealed an electrical plans – means he/she guaranteed the safety of the electrical plans for 15 years in accordance to Civil Code. PEE, REE or RME who signed as in-charge of installations also guaranteed the safety of the electrical installations for 15 years. You can only guaranteed the safety of your electrical designs/installations if you are well-versed in the Philippine Electrical Code. “Licensing guarantees the safety of your works!!!!” BOARD OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING PROFESSIONAL REGULATION COMMISSION

THE PHILIPPINE ELECTRICAL CODE KEY TO SAFETY AND FIRE PREVENTION PURPOSE OF PEC The primary objective of the code is to establish basic materials quality and electrical works standards for the safe use of electricity for light, heat, power, communications, signaling and for other purposes. “Practical safeguarding of persons and property from hazards arising from the use of electricity” COMPLIANCE TO THE PEC WILL ENSURE SAFETY AND PREVENT ELECTRICAL FIRES BOARD OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING PROFESSIONAL REGULATION COMMISSION

THE PHILIPPINE ELECTRICAL CODE The PEC is a safety standard, not a design guide. Electrical designs must comply with the requirements of PEC to ensure safety. Energy management, maintenance, and power quality issues aren’t within the scope of the PEC. Consideration should be given for future expansion of electrical systems but this is not a Code requirement. BOARD OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING PROFESSIONAL REGULATION COMMISSION

Philippine Electrical Code Enforcement 1. This Code is intended for mandatory application by government bodies exercising legal jurisdiction over electrical installation. 2. These government bodies will have the responsibility of implementing the provision of this Code in deciding on the approval of equipment and materials and for granting the special permission contemplated in this Code, where it assured that equivalent objectives can be achieved by establishing and maintaining effective safety.

The National Electrical Code The first documented case of a Code as a requirement of rules was published on 16th Nov. 1881 entitled “The Dangers of Electric Lighting”. The first NEC was developed in 1897, eighteen after the invention of incandescent light bulb by Thomas A. Edison. Since 1911, the NFPA of Quincy, Massachussets, has been responsible for the maintenance and publication of the NEC. Regularly revised (every three years) to reflect the evolution of products, materials, and installation techniques. 21 Separate Committee, each consisting of 15-20 persons. Members of each committee meet several times, discuss proposed changes, accepting some and rejecting others, and rewrite (as required) the sections of the Code that were assigned to their committee.

ELECTRICAL FIRES If a fault develops, the current (and heat energy) can increase to the extent that either the appliance burns out, the connecting wiring overheats and melts the plastic insulation or the plug and socket may burn out. An electrical fire then occur where the overheated wiring, motor, plug, etc. are in contact with or close to flammable or combustible material.
ELECTRICAL FIRE can be defined as a fire where an electric current or electrical fault is found to have been the source of ignition.

Notes For metal auxiliary gutters, 3.66.2.14(a) indicates that derating is not required so long as the number of current-carrying conductors at any cross section does not exceed 30. A similar statement is included for sheet metal wireways in 3.76.2.13. Derating for the number of current-carrying conductors in non-metallic auxiliary gutters and wireways is required, beginning at four-current carrying conductors, because conductors in nonmetallic enclosures do not dissipate heat as well as those in sheet-metal enclosures.

Introduction Art. 6.95 contains many requirements to keep that supply of water uninterrupted. For example: 1. Locating the pump so as to minimize its exposure to fire. 2. Ensuring that the fire pump and its jockey pump have a reliable source of power. 3. It makes sense to keep fire pump wiring independent.

Introduction Other requirements seem wrong at first glance, until you remember why the fire pump is there in the first place. For example: 1. The disconnect must be lockable in the closed position. 2. Fire pumps power circuits cannot have automatic protection against overload.
