Current Carrying Conductors in a Health Care Facility

[Sadler]

I am about to start a remodel in a hospital and I'm wondering how many current carrying conductors can I have in a 3/4" pipe? I know that 9 is the "magic number" in normal cases but I was told that the number is different in health care facility.

Are you talking about an Isolated Power System?

It's just standard power and emergency power from the life safety generator.

There is nothing changing numbers of conductors allowed in a raceway, however you should read through 517.30(C).
