Description: About This ProductThe code you know and use—revamped to keep pace with ever-evolving electrical hazards and challenges.NFPA 70®, National Electrical Code® (NEC®), is the authoritative document addressing electrical installations in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. Stay up to date as you design, install, and inspect with the most current requirements. The NEC has been revised and expanded to stay in sync with industry practices, emerging trends, and the development and introduction of technologies. The document is completely reorganized for improved ease of use and features an expanded Article 100 that consolidates all the code's defined terms in one place to help you quickly locate critical NEC content. 2020 Edition DetailsHighlightsChanges to the 2020 edition of NFPA 70®, National Electrical Code® (NEC®), include:Added, edited, and reorganized content to address safety for workers, energy systems and electric vehicles, limited energy, and communication systemsRevisions to service disconnect rules to help protect electrical workers from arc flash hazardsAdapted and adjusted requirements for installation practices of new technologies to meet the evolving demand for Power over EthernetUpdates to modernize tables currently in use for calculations to reflect improvements in energy efficiency and align with evolving codesRevised requirements for ground-fault protection within marinas and boatyardsIntroduction of guidelines for the safe use of electric vehicles (electric vehicle power export equipment) as a backup or emergency power source for a building or a homeReorganization of Article 310, including new user-friendly numbering for important ampacity tables, a new definition for cable bundle in Article 725, and more!The NEC, 2020 edition, introduces significant new requirements for:Exterior emergency disconnects of one- and two-family dwellings for improved electrical safety for emergency respondersThe residential installation of receptacle outlets serving island and peninsular countertops and for surge protection of services supplying dwelling unitsWorking space for “housekeeping pads” for electrical equipment, the installation of wiring methods in exit enclosures, sizing supply and load conductors used with adjustable-speed drive systems, and AFCI protection of branch circuits in patient sleeping areas in care facilitiesCalculating the load of electric vehicle supply equipment with variable current settingsWorker safety in identifying the source of power for disconnecting means and for egress from spaces containing large electrical equipmentGrounding of disconnecting means installed on the supply-side of service disconnecting meansCables installed exposed on ceiling surfaces and sidewallsSpecial occupancies, special equipment, and special conditions, including installation of splash pads, the use of “Type P” cables in hazardous classified locations, and the reinspection of swimming pools and other bodies of waterTable of ContentsNFPA 70® National Electrical Code® 2020 Edition90 IntroductionChapter 1 General100
