| |
| Given expanded polystyrene’s (EPS’) ability to repel water, withstand loads, and maintain R-values throughout its time in service, the insulation lends itself well to today’s construction industry—one hungry for energy-efficient, cost-effective materials suitable for below-grade building endeavors.

| SECTION 26 27 00 LOW VOLTAGE DISTRIBUTION – WHAT SECTION TO USE FOR CORD REELS? |
| The popularity of cord reels continues to grow as a common solution for educational projects. Since there’s no section under 26 27 00 that is intuitive for cord reels. I maintain they are essentially an extension cord that distributes power. Hence, they should be included under Power Distribution Units, but I am not convinced designers would agree with me. Could we possibly consider adding a new section just for cord reels like we have for Indoor Service Poles?
