Site Preparation/Installation Checklists
7-3
___ Architect aware that individual 3-wire AC outlets are
recommended for each beside instrument, each Information
Center, computer, and the ACC.
___ Cables have been identified by bed number or remote site
number and ordered after cable length from point-to-point
has been carefully measured by the hospital. Order at least
10% longer overrun to prevent a cable too short to do the job.
Refer to “Install Branch Cables” on page 8-11 for cable
ordering information, and order the associated spools to
accommodate branch cable run requirements.
NO SPLICING—CONTINUOUS CABLE RUNS ONLY.
___ Architect aware that the builder must install cables (and
cable enclosures when necessary).
___ Confirmed day scheduled for patient monitoring equipment
installation with hospital personnel assigned.
___ The “clerk of works” has a move-in day assigned for the
equipment.
Note
Go over checklist and correspondence again; it will be worth the effort!
Oversights will cause delays; delays often run costs up exponentially.
