Every electrical installation follows a set of rules...
And most of them start with Article 110. ⚠️
If Article 110 isn't followed, it doesn't matter how good the rest of the installation is.
⚡ NEC Article 110 establishes the general requirements for installing electrical equipment safely and correctly.
It applies across the entire Codebook and serves as the foundation for electrical installations.
Article 110 covers:
⚡ Equipment installation
⚡ Listing and labeling
⚡ Mechanical execution of work
⚡ Electrical connections
⚡ Working space and accessibility
⚡ General safety requirements
These are the rules inspectors reference on nearly every jobsite.
Article 110 isn't limited to one type of equipment or wiring method.
