The HD we did over here was all pipe aside from the MC drops down the pvc sleeves to the cash registers/checkouts and the Reloc lighting. I think we started around June/July with parking lot underground and finished right as the store opened Dec. 1. That Reloc made for some fun troubleshooting right before the store opened simply because the factory landed wires on the wrong terminals inside the Reloc connectors. I think we had to troubleshoot about 4 runs or so.
We did the cctv in one just one HD (never again the contracting company is a bear to deal with, change order? what's that?, "there are no problems..." they said, all jobs run smoothly. Our plans fit every store, no matter what
)The PVC feed ceiling to register is where the cameras were mounted. MC drops went through the PVC as well.
The inspector failed it becuase the MC was not secured every 6 feet, required RMC without it secured.
We had to pull 16 cameras and the EC had to replace it with 4" RMC, then we remounted the cameras That was an expensive change order!!!!
(PS have you ever had to drill a 1 1/8" hole in the side of RMC. Even with a carbide hole saw and oil, it took 15 min per hole, I am so glad I don't do installs like that anymore.)
Of course the next store the EC did, they used PVC, drilled holes every six feet and zip tied the MC to the inside of the PVC. Different inspector heard about the other inspector failing them, they told him they were doing this and he was fine with it.
