This online training focuses on 2026 National Electrical Code (NEC) revisions affecting Chapters 6 through 9 and the Annex, with emphasis on special equipment, emergency and standby systems, and installations.
Throughout the program, participants will examine code updates involving:
- EV power transfer equipment, electrified truck parking spaces, and information technology installations
- Swimming pools, fountains, underwater luminaires, receptacle spacing, and equipotential bonding methods
- Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, including maximum dc voltage limits, conductor separation, and moving-array grounding practices
- Fire pump supply conductors, generator control wiring, and selective coordination concepts
- Emergency and standby power systems, including transfer equipment bypass, commissioning, and temporary power sources
- Limited-energy cable systems, raceways, cable trays, and fault-managed power applications
- Communications, antenna, and broadband systems
Guidance on hazardous location tables, calculation examples, and the proposed organization of the 2029 NEC is also provided.
