ECN Forum Forums Code Related Discussion Canadian Electrical Code Topics Opinions on the 2006 CEC

Any opinions with the new code book. Any new rules there that you really like, or dislike? Just seeing what everyone thinks about it.

I haven't bought the new CEC yet so can't really comment.
The CSA website does list what some of the changes are:

It sure is pricey this time!!

Surely there must be somebody somewhere or a website that can list most/all of the changes for 06.

I have the new code book and the thing that I really like about it is that it comes with its own little cheat book. I guess its the CEC's version of UGLYs. Another thing that I noticed is that splits on the same circuit on a counter top can be placed next to each other. I haven't really gone through everything though beacuse I will be going on a course that details all of the changes.

I haven't got it yet as BC will probably take a year to adopt it, The Safety Branch usually has seminars with the BC changes

Yeah 135.00 for the Hard Copy and 295.00 for the CD is steep.

Guess I will be buying ANOTHER book for school come March!

A.D

well its not yet Adopted here but i bought the 2006 today
