Lesson 1: 2017 NEC Changes: A New Process and Five New Articles (RV-11104)
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) used a new process for considering changes to the 2017 National Electrical Code (NEC). The NEC revision process will be briefly discussed. Additionally, the 2017 NEC will have five new articles covering Fixed Resistance and Electrode Industrial Process Heating Equipment, Large-Scale Photovoltaic (PV) Electric Supply Stations, Energy Storage Systems, Stand-Alone Systems, and Direct Current Microgrids.
Lesson 2: 2017 NEC Changes: General Requirements (RV-11105)
Chapter 1 of the 2017 National Electrical Code (NEC) contains definitions and general requirements for electrical installations. Several definitions were added, revised or relocated in the 2017 NEC.
