10.1  Overview

Sections §150.0(n) and §150.0(t-v) describe the mandatory requirements for electric readiness in single family buildings. The electric readiness requirements apply when natural gas or propane equipment is installed for space heating, water heating, cooking or clothes drying. The intent of the requirements is to facilitate future installations of high efficiency electric equipment and minimize future retrofit costs when gas appliances are replaced with electric appliances.

This section outlines how to comply with the new mandatory electric ready requirements for space heating, water heating, cooking, and laundry.
