GI CONDUIT INSTALLATION REQUIRED AROUND FRESH AIR DUCT IN FALSE CEILING AREA. 1

[swamydhas]

Dear friends,

Can anyone explain the reason for when Fresh air duct is passing through the false celing area, then the consultant was asking around the duct, the electrical services shall be provided with GI conduit only. Is there any criteria or technical reasons in behind of it.

Thanks for your valuable comments.

Regards,

v.swamydhas.

What is GI conduit and what did the consultant say why?

What consultant? Plumbing, fire, LEED, civil,retirement, custodial...???

Usually GI stands for Galvanized iron.

The conduit requirement is usually when the above-ceiling area is a return air plenum.
