blind ends and dead legs in cables and pipes


Explanation:
Me parece que este término sea algo similar a las "terminaciones" mencionadas justo antes.

Se explica lo que son estos términos en este texto:

1. Study the hot & cold water system plans
and identify all water outlet points “dead
legs”, any potential “blind ends” (blanked
off pipes where the water cannot circulate)
or long pipe runs.

"dead legs" se referiría únicamente a las cañerías.
