OK OK OK... I'l try to be a bit more objective here....

Maybe if you conducted a "goodle" search like
you researched, then its not surprising how I
could find about 10 valid references for TIA 570A
like
[Link: tiaonline.org]to your zero.
lol... So your resorting to bashing my typing skills? ok... Hit this link
[Link: google.com] and you'll see what gooGle reports back.... I wasnt bashing the standard... Just saying I couldnt find anything on it. Thank you for the link.
To discuss plenum wiring, putting
plenum in parenthesis I would have hoped that
it would be understood that if plenum is necessary,
then use it. If it is not, bypass it.
Then it should listed as a sub code....
All wiring will be fire rated for safety.
d.1 Plenum rated wire shall be used where required by local ordinances
d.2 CL3 rated wire shal be run in all other situations
24 gage
is the native gage of CAT5, 5e, and 6. If the
purpose of a wire is not for networking or the
568A or B standard, would it make sense to dictate
that the terminator MUST maintain that standard?
Yes... This makes sense to me aif your designing a STANDARD
The installer should be free to arrange that terminator
as the situation dictates. That is what the statement
"in no defined or particular order to the terminator"
means.
Again... Your developing a STANDARD here... This standard is NOT going to save me any time if I inherit someone elses job. I'm going to have to go back to every wall plate and tone/re-terminate every jack in the home. If this was standardized as you suggest, I quick verification that the standard was used should be all I need to do.
22 gage is natively used for line-level
audio and video wiring. There is Component, S-Video,
and Composite that uses this wire in 6 or less
conductors. Match that with the fact that I've
specified a 6-conductor RJ11, and there you have
the underlying reasons for this spec. Laughable?
Unless you can find a better solution, you'll
find your own words turned back on you.
No, I dont think so.... because I'm going to spec the proper cable and proper terminations for the application. I have no intention of ever running Component or RGB level video on a RJ11 connector. They will be terminated to HD15 or BNC termination on my jobs.
Tell me,
do you intentionally select 18 gage wire for IR
transmission?
No, I usually run Cat-5
And in-wall or in-ceiling speakers
should be terminated directly to the transducer.
OK.. That makes sense... I dint notice that in your specs....
Notice that the standard does not specify speakers.
In order to mark where the wiring is laid, blank
wallplates are used.
Have you ever tried to cut out a "Blank wall plate" installed in a metal ring when installing a In-Wall or In-Ceiling speaker? Let me tell you.. this is NOT fun. The Sawzall tends to destroy all the drywall around the ring, a rotozip is painfully slow....
Impaqt, I am surprised at
you. For a veteran of this forum, you act like
I'm trying to rape your daughter! I am simply
trying to expand my horizons, as I expect everyone
else is. I thought that sharing information was
encouraged on this site! You certainly do NOT
make this apparent!
Well... Sorry you took it that way...... As I said before I commend you on your attempt.... Certainly not something I'll be doing anytme soon.
Here's a suggestion: how about
asking WHY this standard is arranged in the manner
it is? How about giving SUGGESTIONS on how to
change things you would like to see different?
Well... I feel the way i do things works well for my clients & I.
