If studs or anchor bolts are to be used, they should be
installed in the foundation as it is poured. It is important

given on the General Electric job drawings. The dimensions
between anchor bolts for a particular installation are
dependent upon the configuration of equipment ordered.
The dimensions shown on Figure 4-2 cover all of the
standard enclosures available for Arc Vault equipment.
