Learn how to pass jobsite inspections on the first try under the 2023 NEC requirements. Rather than presenting installation code as a single list, the lesson material is organized around the inspection process itself: what happens during the rough and final inspections, and what an inspector is actually looking for during each.
Along the way, you'll cover the NEC's current requirements for running wiring underground, above ceilings, and across rooftops, along with the grounding rules that apply to panelboards, services, and transformers.
By the end, you will be able to:
- Recognize the specific items electrical inspectors check for during a jobsite visit.
- Handle inspector feedback and requirements at each phase of a project without delays.
- Install underground, above-ceiling, and rooftop wiring in a way that's ready for inspection.
- Ground panelboards, services, and transformers correctly the first time.
- Complete both rough and final inspections successfully under the 2023 NEC.
