When any NFPA® code or standard is updated to a new edition, changes are inevitable—and the National Electrical Code® (NEC®) is no exception. Understanding why a change was made or the considerations behind it, can provide valuable context and insight.
In our latest video, Corey Hannahs, Master Electrician and Senior Electrical Specialist at NFPA, demonstrates how to use the NEC document information webpage (nfpa.org/70) to research changes made during the First and Second Drafts. This resource allows viewers to explore the reasons behind specific updates, offering deeper clarity and understanding.
As we continue producing videos on the 2026 NEC changes for the NFPA YouTube “Tech Talks” playlist, this video will help viewers independently investigate the changes and gain a broader perspective.
