SKU: RV-PGM211
Duration: 3.00 Hrs

Part 1 of this interactive online course covers The National Electrical Code (NEC) standards that govern the installation of electrical wiring and equipment. Incorrect wiring procedures could result in loss of life and property. Keeping up with the latest changes to the NEC is critical to ensuring safe electrical wiring practices. Chapter 5 of the 2017 National Electrical Code (NEC) contains the requirements for special occupancies. This interactive online course will teach you about several changes that were made in the articles for special occupancies, including health care facilities and RV parks as well as marinas and boatyards. Notable changes include, new allowable wiring methods and equipment for health care facilities, revised receptacle requirements at RV parks, and more restrictive ground fault protection and signage requirements at marinas and boatyards.

Part 2 of this course covers Chapter 6 of the 2017 National Electrical Code (NEC) and the changes it contains for special equipment requirements. Several changes were made in the articles for special equipment, including signs, electric vehicle charging systems and swimming pools. Notable changes include new requirements for signs with retrofitted illumination systems and changes to wiring methods for swimming pools and similar installations.

The 3rd part of this course covers proper wiring of electrical systems. Understanding the latest code requirements will ensure safe installation and operation of electrical systems for years to come. Articles 725 through Chapter 8 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) contain requirements for limited energy and communications systems. This interactive online course will teach you about changes made in the articles for remote-control, signaling, and power-limited circuits [725]; communications circuits [800]; and coaxial cables [820]. Notable changes include cable routing assemblies and communications raceways for control circuits, a major change to address fires from limited energy circuits, revisions to requirements for unlisted cables entering buildings, grounding of primary protectors, uses permitted for under-carpet communications wires and cables, and separation requirements for coaxial cables
