Specialized systems and high-risk environments demand a strong understanding of both technical standards and workplace safety protocols.

In this 4-hour online program, you’ll learn about 2026 National Electrical Code (NEC) revisions tied to motors, HVAC systems, and hazardous occupancies, and how they work together with NFPA 70E and state administrative rules to shape local industry laws.

Key topics covered during the training include:

  • Motors, generators, batteries, refrigerating equipment, and communications infrastructure
  • Hazardous locations, cannabis oil operations, marinas, docking facilities, and floating structures
  • EV power transfer systems, elevators, fire pumps, and surge-protection applications
  • Emergency infrastructure, temporary power installations, commissioning activities, and servicing procedures
  • Energized work tasks, testing practices, inspections, and personnel ground-fault protection under NFPA 70E
  • Licensing oversight, renewal standards, insurance provisions, and enforcement authority established by the state

You’ll also learn how to apply state and federal safety mandates across a variety of field conditions.
