I'm designing the electrical for an ISO 7 clean room. the conduit and wire unlike many such rooms will not be exposed on the walls but run in a wall cavity. I believe I can just use typical NEC chapters 1-4 wiring. i.e. MC cable throughout.

Is this correct?

And regardless, does the NEC define special requirements for Clean Rooms?

Is there any other standard defining electrical requirements for the various levels of clean rooms?

I don't think the NEC has any special requirements for clean rooms.

I will say there are a lot of electrical practices commonly associated with clean room design that might not be a code issue but they probably need to be done anyway. You may wish to consult with someone who has experience in such things lest you miss something important.

i admit to a certain amount of discomfiture that you would accept a project where you feel the need to ask such a basic question about the core of the work.
