In California (southern) a PV contractor wants to run the PV power conduit from the roof through the stairs to the main panel and switch gear on the first floor. this is a local government 4 story office building.
if the conduit is encased in a chase made to same fire rating I.E.double layer of 5/8 type X for 1 hour rated stair will this be considered compliant.So, what's your question?
Feasible, but bad idea....If you could enclose it and actually get it "out" of the stair it could work, but you would be looking at a 4 story shaft.....if the conduit is encased in a chase made to same fire rating I.E.double layer of 5/8 type X for 1 hour rated stair will this be considered compliant.
PV panelsWhat purpose is served by the conduit, something on the roof of the stairwell?
