Abandoned Cabe Commercial Building

[CMurry]

Folks,

What is the NEC code for abandoned cabe in office building?
Is there a NFPA code for the same?

Thanks

it depends on your definition of "cable". There are quite a few articles addressing this now, and each pertains to the type of cable. Here are some articles725.25 760.25 770.25 and 800.25.

My question would involve CAT V and telephone cables.

Thanks,

Cables get really depressed when abandoned, they might eventually lash out at the next person to come along. I know my cat did...
