  (f) Differing constructions. A detector having materials or forms of construction differing from this standard may be investigated and tested according to the intent of this standard, and if found to be substantially equivalent may be given recognition for approval and listing. The office of the State Fire Marshal shall be consulted for general requirements and performance standards.

  (g) Operating and installation instructions.

  1. A copy of the operating and installation instructions and related schematic wiring diagrams and installation drawings are to be furnished with the sample submitted for investigation to be used as a guide in the examination and test of the detector and for this purpose need not be in final printed form. The information may be included in a manual or technical bulletin.
  2. The instructions and drawings should include such directions and information as deemed by the manufacturer to be adequate for attaining proper and safe installation, maintenance and operation of the detector. See Section 12-72-302 (b).

  GENERAL

  (a) Construction.

  1. A detector shall be so constructed that it will be reliable and sufficiently durable for its intended installation and use.
  2. A component of a detector shall comply with the requirements for that component, except that such requirements may be modified if appropriate for the particular application.
  3. Except where specifically indicated otherwise, the construction requirements specified for a detector shall also apply for any remote accessories with which it is to be employed.
  4. Each detector is to be provided with a means for monitoring the relative sensitivity of the unit after it has been installed.
  5. The monitoring means may be by means of a jack or terminals for connection of a meter, or by a visual means which would be visible with the unit installed, or equivalent.
  6. The use of a plug-in type detector assembly, which may be removed readily for insertion of an adapter connected to metering equipment, would be acceptable.

  (b) Marking.

  1. A detector shall be permanently marked with the following information, except where it is indicated that the information may appear on an installation wiring diagram. A.

• CRSC § 90.2 High relevance — show source text

  18. After the carrier (service) pipe is installed in the casing, the end of the casing nearest the house or structure being supplied shall be sealed so that any leaking gas cannot migrate through the casing to the building.

  A. If the properly sized casing plug is available for PE 2708 casings, as listed in GDS B-90.2, use it for this purpose. Wrap the casing plug with Tac-Tape (Code 507036) or equivalent tape wrap. If a suitable plug is not available, a plug of duct seal at least 1″ long should be used, followed by the Tac-Tape or equivalent. If the other end of the service conduit for the gas line terminates near another building or structure into which gas could migrate, take special precautions to vent the casing to a safe location.

  B. PVC service conduit shall be sealed in accordance with Item 18A above.

  Maintenance and Operations

  1. Gas crews and other employees who could respond to a gas emergency should be made aware that some services and mains have been installed through plastic sleeves and conduits. They should be trained on how to recognize and to squeeze off pipe that has been so installed.

  2. PE 2708 and PVC service conduits and gas main sleeves may be accessed by window cutting using Company-approved tools. Precautions shall be taken to avoid damaging the carrier pipe.

  3. A gas service or main that is installed in a service conduit or gas main sleeve that has been squeezed off must be replaced. GDS A-93.1 provides specific replacement instructions.
