Gain a practical understanding of revised 2026 provisions affecting equipment, motors, special occupancies, and emerging technologies in Chapters 4, 5, and 6 of the National Electrical Code (NEC).
Designed for working electricians, this online program focuses on how updated code language impacts day-to-day installation decisions and equipment applications in the field.
Learn about revisions involving:
- Switches, receptacles, faceplates, fixture controls, and industrial equipment markings
- Fixed heating equipment, refrigerating systems, generators, and stationary batteries
- Conductive pavement heating systems and motor-related conductor calculations
- Hazardous (classified) spaces, bonding methods, and zone-based occupancy classifications
- Health care systems, commercial garages, cannabis oil equipment, and fuel-dispensing sites
- Elevators, hoists, electric signs, manufactured wiring assemblies, and EV infrastructure
The material prepares you to interpret and implement the latest NEC standards across all your projects.
