2011 National Electrical Code® with NFPA 70E Awareness & Grounding and Bonding On-Site Training

This on-site training class is also available as Public Schedule Seminar.

This seminar will teach you how to apply the 2011 NEC in your workplace and will help you to understand its latest additions, revisions and changes. Also you will also learn how to remain safe when working on or around electrical systems, while learning how to maintain your electrical systems with the correct grounding and bonding techniques.

Course Description/Agenda

5 day Lecture
4.0 Continuing Education Credits

The following sub-components are available:
2011 National Electrical Code

The National Electrical Code® is used by all states for industry-wide electrical standards. Ensure your organization is in compliance now so you can avoid reworking your electrical systems. This course benefits individuals who are either at an introductory level or who are experienced in working with electrical systems. By the conclusion of the course, both levels will significantly increase their knowledge, skill level and confidence. The full five-day combination course will also address how to remain safe when working on or around electrical systems. Additionally, you will learn how to maintain electrical systems with the correct grounding and bonding techniques.

If you’re looking for a shorter review of NEC®, you might be interested in the 3-day lecture with covers the fundamentals: 2011 National Electrical Code®.
