| Attribution | |
| Application | Application 1: Offsetting of boxes referred to in Sentence 9.10.5.1.(2) [electrical
and similar service outlet boxes], where such boxes are located on both sides
of walls required to provide a fire-resistance rating [and
that also form a fire separation].

| Intent | Intent 1: To limit the probability that certain service equipment
penetrating wall assemblies that also form a fire separation will contribute
to the spread of fire through the assemblies, which could lead to a loss of
integrity of the fire separation, which could lead to the spread of fire and
smoke from one fire compartment to another, which could lead to damage to
the building in the other compartment. |
