26 05 00 Common Work Results for Electrical: Common Contradictions and RFI Guide

Electrical common work requirements for conduit, wire, and grounding conflict with panel schedules and single-line diagrams.

Most Common Work Results for Electrical contradictions trace to the same root: the specification and the drawings are produced by different people at different stages, and never fully reconciled before the set goes out. By the time the conflict is found in the field, it is an RFI, a delay, or a change order.

Lintel cross-references section 26 05 00 against your full drawing set, schedules, and the rest of the project manual, flagging every disagreement with a citation to the exact page so it is resolved in review.

What goes wrong

Common contradiction types

Wire size vs. panel schedule

A frequent common work results for electrical conflict. Lintel reconciles the drawings against the spec to surface it with a page-level citation, so it is caught in review rather than at rough-in.

Conduit type conflicts

A frequent common work results for electrical conflict. Lintel reconciles the drawings against the spec to surface it with a page-level citation, so it is caught in review rather than at rough-in.

Grounding requirement gaps

A frequent common work results for electrical conflict. Lintel reconciles the drawings against the spec to surface it with a page-level citation, so it is caught in review rather than at rough-in.

In the field

Frequent RFIs

  • Wire size not matching panel schedule ampacity
  • Conduit type conflict between spec and plan callout
  • Grounding electrode conductor size not matching spec
