Are conduits and boxes allowed to be installed prior to OSHPD′s approval of a fire alarm deferred submittal?
No, unless shown on the approved electrical plans. If the conduits and boxes are not shown on the approved electrical plans, the California Administrative Code requires that submittal documents must be approved by OSHPD prior to the installation of deferred submittal items.
