This exploration of NEC-2023 provides the codes and best practices you need to make electrical installation a safe, effective exercise. This four-credit course is approved by the Regulations & Licensing Department.
Discover how the principles of NEC-2023 work together to establish a framework for installation standards. Compare NEC-2023 to NEC-2020 to see what has changed with the newest edition. This course uses a “cut-and-paste” method that immediately draws your attention to additions, changes, and deletions within the text of the electrical code.
Conclude your studies with a helpful set of practical problems. Each one is a real-world example demonstrating important course material concepts. They will help you ground your textbook knowledge with field experience during installation. Adherence to NEC standards makes it easier and safer to properly install new electrical service.
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Understand and remember the numerous codes that govern service installation.
- Make use of the codes covered in this course while solving real-world problems in locating, rating, selection, disconnects, multiple services, panels, identification and GFPE.
- Select and install appropriate service-entrance conductors.
- Follow best practices regarding service equipment rating.
- Apply relevant codes to overhead service conductors.
- Explain best practices to service disconnecting means.
- incorporate best practices for service overcurrent protection.
