Just completed reading some papers sent to me from NYC. It indicates that after 30 years of having their own code, NYC in Dec. 2002 approved the 1999 NEC with extensive modifications. The info received documents extensive lobbying by manufacturers AWA the nfpa to get the nec approved. It appears that there are legal actions contemplated by some EC's in the NYC area.
Is there a NY EC on the forum who could add info and comment?
