Maintenance Plans and Procedures for Structured-wiring Design
A professionally installed low-voltage structured-wiring system can be expected to last approximately 15 years. It has the longest life cycle of components in a low-voltage system. However, several steps are listed here that should be taken to ensure trouble-free operation over the expected life cycle of the cabling system:
- Keep records of any changes to the control panel terminations or punch-down block wiring— One of the main advantages for structured cabling is fault isolation. When problems occur, an updated log of any changes can be critical when looking for the source of a problem.
