3.  AVAILABLE FAULT CURRENT:

Sheet E6.0.1 (Field Marking - Available Fault Current). NEC Section 110.24 requires that service equipment be legibly marked in the field with the maximum available fault current. The field markings shall include the date the fault current calculation was performed and be of sufficient durability to withstand the environment involved.

4.  CIRCUIT DIRECTORY OR CIRCUIT INDENTIFICATION ON FLOOR PLAN & PANEL SCHEDULS:

Sheet E6.0.1 (Floor Plan and Panel Schedules Circuit Identifications). Panels and floor plan do not have  circuit identifications.
