This 15-hour online program provides local electricians with a comprehensive review of the major changes introduced in the 2026 National Electrical Code (NEC), including new articles, revised definitions, and other updates that impact design, installation, and inspection practices across Chapters 1–9.
Learners will explore key revisions to:
- NEC terminology, code organization, equipment marking standards, and working-space provisions
- Branch-circuit, feeder, and service load calculations for dwelling units and EV supply equipment
- Grounded conductor identification, overcurrent protection methods, and systems operating above 1000 volts
- Conductor sizing, ampacity tables, cable routing methods, raceways, and physical protection standards
- Wiring devices, switches, panelboards, HVAC systems, generators, and stationary battery installations
- Hazardous occupancies, health care environments, marinas, swimming pools, elevators, and emergency power applications
- Communications infrastructure, limited-energy systems, broadband cable entry methods, and antenna safety practices
This training also covers the 2024 edition of NFPA 70E, focusing on electrical safety in the workplace by highlighting arc-flash protection, approach boundaries, and essential risk assessment procedures.
In addition, participants will review state-specific rules governing electrical licensure, disciplinary procedures, and common field concerns.
