RECLAMATION

[sdilucca]

I have recently come across the term "Reclamation" a few times in my NEC research. Anything special?

Examples:

-Reclamation does not permit conduit, cable tray, electrical metallic tubing (EMT), liquidtite, conduit, flexible conduit (flex), or any other conductive racways as equipment grounding conductors

-Bathrooms, kitchens, and shops and most other locations at Reclamation facilities are conductive locations and require GFCIs

Re: RECLAMATION

To me it sounds like a facility that takes in the contents of our recycle bins (paper, glass, cans, etc.) and reclaims the basic materials of which they are made. Can you give us the article numbers of the lines you quoted, so we can see the word used in context?

Re: RECLAMATION

Is that term actually in the NEC or just other documents that refer to the NEC?

Re: RECLAMATION

it's from a document that refers to the NEC. The first example refers to acticle 210 (1999), but I don't see the word reclamation there. I guess it's just an application specific word. Sorry for anyone who invested more than 10secs to my question. :roll:
