Having your say in the 2011 NEC

[STEVETERRY]

Are there parts of the National Electrical Code(R) that do not make sense to you? Would some changes to the language or addition of new material help you in your job? Is your inspector simply confused by awkward and unfamiliar requirements?

It is time to start the tri-annual revision process leading to the creation of the 2011 edition of the National Electrical Code (R) which can help with the above situations. The NEC revision process begins by the general public (you) submitting proposals to revise the Code. The proposals for the 2011 edition will be due on November 7, 2008.

As in the past , the USITT Engineering commission will serve to coordinate proposals for our industry. By reviewing everyone's proposals, we can strengthen them and present a collective position to the Code panels. You are also free to present your own proposals directly to the NFPA.

Err...no.

However, you could join the International Association of Electrical Inspectors (IAEI) as an Associate Member. Then you could get a new NEC for $8. But that would be in 2011.



Pony up the money--it's worth it! NEC knowledge is part of your career toolbox!

I'll probably be buying a 2005 edition soon.

The IAEI looks like a great idea also.
Once I have some free cash and a sponsor I'll go for it.
