What does the source support?

The enclosure drawing records the interface. It does not select conductor sizes, protection settings or the engineering sign-off.

What remains an engineering decision?

Cooling, acoustic, structural, fire, fuel and electrical compliance require qualified project review. Only the registered engineer responsible for the job performs engineering sign-off.

Common questions

What else should the bid team know?

Does this guide approve an enclosure design?

No. It is a coordination framework for approved inputs and specialist review.

Can a value be copied from another generator?

No. Use the selected equipment and project design basis.

Who signs off the engineering?

Only the registered engineer responsible for the job.
