the 2008 NEC includes the latest rules for electrical installation in
residential, commercial, and industrial occupancies. It also introduces:

Operations Power Systems with provisions for electrical security in public
and private facilities that must stay online during a crisis, such as
public safety dispatch centers and hospital ICUs.
- New article on
Electrified Truck Parking Spaces with NEC rules for outlets to run
on-board electrical systems, reducing truck emissions and fuel consumption
caused by idling during driver rest times.
- New provisions in Article
210, Article 410, and elsewhere in the Code that reduce worker hazards and
correlate with NFPA 70E ® worker safety rules.
- Plus usability changes,
such as greater consistency in grounding and bonding terminology.

Information on PDF files:
Many of the NFPA Web site files, such as our Report on Proposals and Report
on Comments documents, as well as our Fire Investigations, rely heavily
upon both page layout and graphical content. This visual information can be
lost in the transfer from the printed page or software file to the web page. To
maintain the integrity of these documents, we convert these files into Portable
Document Format (PDF) files. PDF files are excellent for displaying a
document's original information and format on a large number of computer
systems. PDF files need special software to be viewed and printed. Adobe Acrobat Reader®
