Arrogance? I don't think so......

I've arrived on ECN a little over 15 months ago as a British engineer who had spent time in America and knew only a little about American wiring practices and the NEC.

I asked plenty of questions, many of which might have had obvious answers to those who grew-up with the NEC and U.S. wiring, yet everyone here was willing to take the time to explain things to a foreigner. In my time at ECN I have learned much about the NEC and general U.S. practices.

I know that in return many of you who have been interested in how things are done elsewhere have put a fair amount of time in reading my rambling about U.K. wiring and practices, and some of the discussions which have arisen from our differences have been most enlightening to all concerned.

I hardly think that the friendship and attitudes I've encountered on ECN could in any way be called arrogant.
