Interface coordination working pack
Wiring and Integration Guide
Separate project power, control, communication, commissioning and responsibility inputs before equipment selection or site work.
What this resource does and does not confirm
The guide is a coordination framework, not an electrical design, connection instruction, protocol confirmation or commissioning approval.
Safe selection framework
- Separate the requirements. Record project power, the requested control outcome and the cable or power-point plan as distinct inputs.
- Identify the equipment review. Provide product and drive-selection inputs while leaving the exact motor, controller and interface open for project review.
- Assign the handoff. Record installation, access, drawing, approval and project-stage responsibilities before coordination proceeds.
Required project inputs
- Buyer role. State the role coordinating the request so review questions reach the correct project discipline.
- Product or system type. Describe the requested shading system in buyer terms and flag uncertain classification for review.
- Drive-selection inputs. Record the requested drive position and selection inputs; leave final equipment fields for project review.
- Power-supply inputs. Record the project power information supplied by the electrical team without inferring equipment suitability.
- Control requirement and protocol. Describe the requested control outcome and any protocol identified by the project controls team.
- Cable route and power point. Mark proposed cable routes, handoff points and power-point locations on the coordinated drawing.
- Installation responsibility. Record the proposed responsibility for preparation, installation, connection, testing and approval.
- Access and maintenance. Record the proposed access route and maintenance responsibility for project review.
- Drawing revision reference. Identify the drawing issue and revision used for the submission.
- Approval and sample submittal. List the samples, finishes or submittals that the project team needs to review.
- Project stage. Identify the current project stage so the submission can be reviewed in the right sequence.

Drive-Side and Wiring Revision Sign-Off
Use the same opening ID and elevation orientation on the shading, electrical and architectural record. A left/right instruction without a viewing direction is ambiguous. Sign off the coordinated revision before wall or ceiling closure.
| Record | What must be identified | Responsible confirmation |
|---|---|---|
| Opening and drawing | Opening ID, elevation viewing direction, drawing number/revision | Architect/schedule owner |
| Drive and power | Drive end, motor-side supply and accessible power point | Selected-system supplier plus electrician |
| Control cable | Interface, cable route and entry location | Integrator/electrician using selected-device instructions |
| Service access | Access opening and removal route after finishes | Installer and contractor |
| Closure hold point | Unresolved issues, approval owner and release date/revision | Named project approver |
If drive side or wiring changes, record the affected openings and issue a revised sign-off. Keep closure on hold where the removal path or interface remains unresolved. For lower-glazing privacy concepts, use the bottom-up preconstruction guide.
Selected-System Power Output Allocation Schedule
Assign each motor to a documented supply/output without assuming that a control group is a power-capacity group. Enter motor model, motor-side voltage, documented current/power, supply output and channel, cable route/length, reviewer and status. Leave unknown ratings blank and open.

The blank schedule does not calculate supply capacity, cable size or voltage drop. Attach the selected equipment documentation and electrical review. The Voltage & Power Guide compares central and local supply planning.

Plans, elevations and sections must share opening IDs and revisions; unresolved structure, access, power or control decisions stay visible.
