Aia nā loina uila e pono ke hahai ʻia no kēlā me kēia hoʻokomo uila, me nā hoʻokomo uila waho.Ke noʻonoʻo nei i nā mea kukui o waho e ʻike ʻia i nā ʻano ʻano ʻano like ʻole, ua hoʻolālā ʻia lākou e sila i ka makani,ua, a me ka hau.ʻO ka hapa nui o nā mea hana waho he mau uhi pale kūikawā no ka mālama ʻana i kāu kukui i nā kūlana ʻino.
ʻO nā pahu i hoʻohana ʻia ma waho e pono e loaʻa ka pale palekana mai ka hewa kaapuni-interrupter.Holo koke nā mea GFCI inā ʻike lākou i kahi kaulike ʻole o ke kaapuni e hōʻike ana i kahi hewa i ka honua, hiki ke kū i ka wāʻO nā mea uila a i ʻole kekahi mea e hoʻohana ana ia mea pili i ka wai.Hoʻohana mau ʻia nā pahu GFCI ma nā wahi pulu, e komo pū me nā lumi ʻauʻau, nā haʻahaʻa, nā kīhini, nā hale kaʻa, a me waho.
Aia ma lalo ka papa inoa o nā koi kūikawā no nā kukui waho a me nā puka waho a me nā kaapuni e hānai iā lākou.
1. Pono i waho o ka waihona ipu
ʻO nā pahu waho ka inoa kūhelu no nā puka mana maʻamau-me nā mea i kau ʻia i nā paia o waho.e like me nā hale kaʻa kaʻawale, nā papa, a me nā hale ʻē aʻe o waho.Hiki ke hoʻokomo ʻia nā pahu ma nā pou a i ʻole nā pou ma ka pā.
●Pono e pale ʻia nā pahu 15-amp a me 20-amp, 120-volt a pau i ka GFCI.Hiki ke palekana mai kahi pahu GFCI a i ʻole kahi haʻihaʻi GFCI.
●Pono ʻia hoʻokahi pahu ma mua a ma hope o ka hale a ma ke kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe o 6 kapuaʻi 6 iniha ma luna o ka papa (ʻili honua).
●Pono ʻia hoʻokahi pahu i loko o ke anapuni o kēlā me kēia lāʻau, deck, porch, a i ʻole patio e hiki ke loaʻa mai loko o ka hale.Pono e kau ʻia kēia ʻeke ma mua o 6 kapuaʻi 6 iniha ma luna o ka hele wāwae o ka lāʻau, deck, porch, a i ʻole patio.
●Pono e helu ʻia nā ʻano pahu paʻa ʻole 15-amp a me 20-amp 120-volt ma nā wahi pulu a pulu paha ma ke ʻano he ʻano kū i ka wā.
2. Nā Pahu Puʻu a me nā uhi
Pono e hoʻokomo ʻia nā pahu waho i loko o nā pahu uila kūikawā a loaʻa nā uhi kūikawā, e pili ana i ke ʻano hoʻonohonoho maoli a me ko lākou wahi.
●Pono e helu ʻia nā pahu āpau i kau ʻia ma luna no ka hoʻohana ʻana i waho.Pono e helu ʻia nā pahu ma nā wahi pulu no nā wahi pulu.
●Pono e hoʻopaʻa ʻia nā pahu metala (e pili ana ke kānāwai i nā pahu metala āpau o loko a me waho).
●ʻO nā pahu i hoʻokomo ʻia ma nā wahi pulu (e like me ka paia i pale ʻia ma luna o ka hale lanai a i ʻole nā uhi ʻē aʻe) pono e loaʻa kahi uhi pale ʻino i ʻae ʻia no nā wahi pulu (a i ʻole nā wahi pulu).
●Pono e loa'a ka uhi "ho'ohana" no nā wahi pulu i loko o nā wahi pulu (i pale 'ole i ka ua).Mālama kēia ʻano uhi i ka pahu i ka makū ʻoiai ke hoʻopili ʻia ke kaula i loko.
3.Outdoor kukui koi
ʻO nā koi no ka hoʻomālamalama ʻana o waho he maʻalahi a ua manaʻo maoli ʻia e hōʻoia i ka palekana a me ka maʻalahi o ka komo ʻana i ka home.ʻO ka hapa nui o nā hale i ʻoi aku ka mālamalama o waho ma mua o ka mea i koi ʻia e ka NEC.ʻO nā huaʻōlelo "lighting outlet" a me "luminaire" i hoʻohana ʻia ma ka NEC a me nā kikokikona code kūloko e pili ana i nā mea kukui.
●Pono hoʻokahi puka kukui ma ka ʻaoʻao o waho o nā puka waho āpau ma ka pae papa (nā puka o ka papahele mua).ʻAʻole ia e komo i nā puka kaʻa i hoʻohana ʻia no ke komo kaʻa.
●Pono ka puka kukui ma nā puka puka kaʻa a pau.
●Pono nā mea hoʻololi ma nā ʻōnaehana kukui haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa.Pono nā mea hoʻololi plug-in-type e hoʻopili i loko o kahi pahu pale GFCI i ʻāpono ʻia me ka uhi "hoʻohana" i helu ʻia no nā wahi pulu.
●Pono e hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia nā kukui waho ma nā wahi pulu (ma lalo o ka pale o ka hale a i ʻole kahi eave overhang) no nā wahi pulu (a i ʻole nā wahi pulu).
●Pono e hoʻopaʻa inoa ʻia nā mea kukui ma nā wahi pulu (me ka pale ʻole o ke poʻo) no nā wahi pulu.
4. Ka lawe ʻana i ka mana i nā pahu waho a me nā kukui
Hiki ke holo ʻia nā kaula kaapuni i hoʻohana ʻia no nā ʻeke paʻa i ka paia a me nā kukui kukui ma o ka pā a me ke kaula nonmetallic maʻamau, inā aia ke kaula i kahi maloʻo a pale ʻia mai ka pōʻino a me ka makū.ʻO nā ʻeke a me nā mea paʻa i mamao aku i ka hale e hānai pinepine ʻia e ke kaula kaapuni lalo.
●Pono ke kelepona ma nā wahi pulu a i ʻole ma lalo o ka honua ke ʻano mea hānai ma lalo o ka honua (UF-B).
●Pono e kanu ʻia ka uwea ma lalo o ka honua ma kahi o 24 iniha ka hohonu, ʻoiai e ʻae ʻia ka hohonu he 12-ʻīniha no nā kaapuni 20-amp a i ʻole ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi me ka pale GFCI.
●Pono e pale ʻia ke kaula i kanu ʻia e ke kahawai i ʻāpono ʻia mai ka hohonu o 18 iniha (a i ʻole ka hohonu kanu i makemake ʻia) a hiki i 8 kapuaʻi ma luna o ka honua.Pono e pale ʻia nā ʻāpana a pau o ka uwea UF e ka conduit i ʻāpono ʻia.
●ʻO nā wehe ʻana kahi e komo ai ke kaula UF e komo i ka conduit non-PVC pono e hoʻokomo i kahi nahele e pale ai i ka pōʻino o ke kaula.
