Reno said "That only illustrates the need to know more - far more- than the NEC"

Those are very true words!

Here in Nj we have the UCC (Uniform Construction Code) 5:23 et al, which is the "bible", and it still amazes me how many electrical contractors do NOT know it exists.

Short & sweet, it contains ALL statewide codes, with the exception of the local POCO requirements, along with ALL administrative requirements.

Yes, we as ECs, and electrical inspectors have to 'know' what is required, and who is responsible for enforcement of what.

Anyone who has any interest in looking at it, it's at the NJ DCA website. (Link to follow)
