National Electrical Code 2007 Handbook:

 

This IEEE product is part of the family on NESCs. The NESC Handbook is a powerful tool that pulls together facts, figures, and explanations that help you effectively implement the Code. Authored by Allen L. Clapp, the NESC Handbook covers NESC various requirements up to 2007, detailing important work rules and a historical perspective of the Code.

 

 

The 2007 NESC Handbook, 6th edition, will give you insight into what lies behind the National Electrical Safety Code's rules and how to apply them. Edited by Allen Clapp, this Handbook discusses how the NESC Committee has interpreted the rules in the code and responded to change proposals during the code's 85-year history, providing valuable insight to help you understand how questions you may have were dealt with in the past.

The NESC Handbook helps you understand how the 2007 National Electrical Safety Code differs from the 2002 version—and how those changes impact your work.

Examine the 2007 NESC in practical, hands-on detail, including this edition's changes in a great many areas, including:

• Rounding numbers found in the rules.
• Metal grounding poles.
• Starting voltages and clearances.
• Grounding and insulation for guy wires.
• Arc exposure analysis.
• Clearances between transmission lines.
• Multiplex cable attachment to neutral brackets.
• Loading due to freezing rain and wind.
• Fiber-reinforced polymer elements.
• Worker loads.
• Equipment bonding.
• Antenna radiation exposure limits.

The 2007 NESC Handbook also contains new appendices on loading and conductor movement, extreme wind loading, and maximum over-voltage at a work site.
