Free Resource - Top 10 Rules of the NEC  

 
Image

It's always our pleasure to give back to the industry as much as we can, whenever we can; so we want to share this free PDF publication with you.

The most important rules of the NEC are those rules that specifically address safe installations as they relate to electric shock and fire. In 2008 we created a textbook Illustrated Guide to Essential Rules of the National Electrical Code. It specifically addressed those rules and was written in response to the preventable deaths of the U.S. service personnel who served in Iraq and Afghanistan that were being shocked at military bases due to installations not compliant with the NEC. Mike wanted to isolate those rules that, if followed properly, would ensure safe installations.

This Free PDF is based on our newest edition of that book, and includes the Top 10 Rules as they relate to safe installations.

To access this free PDF click here or on the image to download. Feel free to share this Mike Holt Publication with colleagues or employees.

To purchase the complete book Mike’s Illustrated Guide to Essential Rules of the National Electrical Code, based on the 2014 NEC, click here.

  • A discussion came up at work today. One guy says that a light switch within 6 feet of a tub or shower needed to be gfci protected. I say that the code says receptical and switches are different. I looked in the code book and found no celerity of this. Can anyone help with this. Thanks for all your time

  • At the bottom of page 14 of the Top Ten Safety Rules under the author's comment you indicate that GFCI protection is not required for receptacles supplying dishwashers however 210.8(D) indicates that GFCI protection shall be provided for outlets that supply dishwashers in dwelling units.

  • There ought to be a national Mike Holt day. Nobody in this industry has done more to educate those involved in it. Thanks Mike, once again.

  • Thanks again Mike for all that you give back to the industry and all your hard work at getting the younger folks trained correctly and safely. I noticed on page 14 your comments suggest that gfci protection is not required for built in dishwashers? My copy of NEC 2014 has 210.8 (D) new installations require gfci branch circuit protection in dwelling units. Hope this is a typo.
