Abstract
The National Electrical Code governs all electrical installations in industrial facilities as well as commercial and residential occupancies. Since new products and electrical technology are constantly evolving, it is necessary to periodically revise the National Electrical Code to incorporate these changes in products and applications. This paper defines the complete revision cycle and provides guidance for submitting proposals and comments to change the National Electrical Code.
