Situation: Job specification calls for the signalling line circuit and the notification appliance circuit to be class A. NFPA 72 states that the return circuit must be in a separate raceway. All class A job's I've been involved with in the past required 100% conduit. This new job is being designed for free air wire with stub ups only.
Question: Is there a requirement for class A circuit to be in enclosed raceway (EMT)?
It doesn't make sense to me to spec a job for class A without requiring the wire to be in conduit. Seems like the whole concept for class A circuits is survivability.
