I finally stopped laughing at the IT drawings that came in yesterday afternoon long enough to post this.
This just arrived from one of the "I am the IT guy and my word shall not be questioned" people who have NO idea what they're doing.
His drawing contains a table of length and ground wire size:
Less that 13'......#6
13' to 20'.........#4
21' to 26'.........#3
26' to 33'.........#2
33' to 44'.........#1
44' to 52'.........#1/0
52' to 66'.........#2/0
over 66'...........#3/0
This is for a data closet with (4) 15A circuits in a plain vanilla dorky little office building.
Maybe these guys have a lot of stock in one of the copper wire manufacturers??
LOL...........................
When the person who gave you that drawing see's the 3/0 after is is installed, do me a favor and get a picture of the look on his face.
Where do these people get this info from?
