Proper wiring of electrical systems is essential to protecting life and property. 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.

NOTE: Discounts will display at the very end of the checkout process.
