  • Abstract
    This paper describes the process of selecting wires and cables for the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Project. The criteria for the fire and environmental tests, the basis for the specifications, and the reasons for the final choice and acceptance are outlined. A short section is dedicated to the installation of cables in raceways with reference to separation and color coding. Also covered are the selection and testing of fire stops and the selection of seismic supports.
