Analysis of
Changes,
2008
NEC
by
International Association of
Electrical Inspectors (IAEI)
and NFPA
Created by the International Association of
Electrical Inspectors (IAEI) and NFPA®, the 2008
NEC Analysis of Changes is an accurate, reliable,
and authoritative account of the significant revisions in the
2008 National Electrical Code.
Trust this full-color-illustrated reference to help you master
the Code and comply smoothly and accurately from the start!
New articles explore critical operations power
systems, reinforced thermosetting resin conduit, control systems for
permanent amusement attractions, and electrified truck parking space
equipment.
Residential AFCI protection is extended. Most
far-reaching is the definition of neutral.
We’d recommend a thorough review of these and
more than 350 other changes before your jurisdiction adopts
NEC-2008. Be the first in
your group to know. You’ll be glad you did.
