t limitation for these systems. Wiring Method Section 90-3 specifies that all wiring must be installed in accordance with the general requirements of Chapters 1 through 4 unless modified by Chapters 5 through 7. Article 720 does not modify the general requirements of Chapter 1 through 4, therefore all wiring for Article 720 installations must be in accordance with Chapters 1 through 4, except that the minimum conductor size is No.12 [720-4]. This means that 600 volt insulated conductors (minimum No.12) must be installed in a Chapter 3 wiring method, splices must be in outlet boxes [300-15], and overcurrent protection must be as specified in Section 240-3.
tors are not Class 1 conductors, but rather motor control conductors as defined in Section 430-71. Overcurrent for these conductors must be in accordance with the values listed in Table 430-72(b), Fig. 1-5. Power Class 1 remote-control and signaling cannot operate at more than 600 volts, and there is no power or current limitation for these systems. Wiring Method All wiring for Class 1 remote-control and signaling circuits must be in accordance with Chapters 1 through 4. This means that 600 volt insulated conductors [725-27] must be installed in a Chapter 3 wiring method [725-25], splices must be in outlet boxes [725-25], and overcurrent protection must be as specified in Section 240-3 [725-24].
