4. Submit a power system design spreadsheet of power loading for all DC power supply circuits, AC
UPS circuits, and AC normal power circuits required by the security system on 36” x 24” D-Size
drawings. The spreadsheet shall consist of each circuit/device controlled by the security system
with each device's steady state and in-rush load, and a loading summary of all device types for
each circuit.
5. Any substitutions for specified equipment must be pre-approved by the Project Manager at least
ten (10) working days prior to bid date. Provide complete product data, diagrams and block
diagrams for substitution. ANY SUBSTITUTIONS THAT WERE NOT PRE-APPROVED will
be denied after the bid.
6. Provide complete manual material concurrently with the system submittal and provide updated
final version of manuals one month before completion of construction and final system turnover.

Delivery, Storage, and Handling
Protect all materials and equipment from damage during storage at the site and throughout the
construction period. Protect equipment and materials during shipment and storage against physical
damage, dirt, dust, moisture, heat, cold, rain, and any foreign substances that may damage the
equipment. Prevent damage from rain, dirt, sun and ground water by storing the equipment on elevated
supports and covering them on all sides with securely fastened protective rigid or flexible waterproof
coverings.
