Hi, I am new to this site and have a question for any California HA installers. I have been a C-7 Low voltage contractor for the past 10 or so years . My main business is Business TV or Satellite Based distance leaning systems. When I first became a licensed contractor I swear it included anything up to 300volts but not full house wiring. For instance if i needed to add an electrical outlet to plug my equipment into, it was legal to do so. Now when I check the current CLSB classification info under Low voltage C-7 classification it states wiring under 91 volts which would exclude Home Automation such as X-10 or Insteon. Can anyone here confirm or dispel my reading of this.
If true I have been breaking the law for a long time and didn't know it. Funny thin is that I have even pulled a couple of permits that included adding extra electrical outlets but they were always specifically being added to use for my equipment.
