Hey Ed, What Is the Plans Review Form?
In this edition of "Hey Ed," Ed talks about the Plans Review Form.
Hey Ed, what is the plans review form? - The plans review form is a document that the folks at ACCA put together. I wanna say it’s approaching 20 years ago. I became accustomed with it maybe 15 years ago and it’s really just some simple guidance on how to record the necessary information to do a proper load calculation, collect the information for equipment selection and it can show that you picked out the minimum amount of information for a proper manual decalculation. It’s something I think everybody who’s never used it or never have seen it should check out and that’s the way I see it.
