EPISODE 4 — Who Has the Final Say?

Focus: 90.4

Slide 1 — Hook

👷 WHO ENFORCES THE NEC?

You found a Code rule.

You think you know what it means.

But who's responsible for enforcing it?

Slide 2 — 90.4

⚡ THE AHJ

The Authority Having Jurisdiction is responsible for enforcement of the Code.

That includes things such as:

• Interpreting rules
• Equipment/material approval
• Certain special permissions

Slide 3 — Special Permission

🔥 ALTERNATIVE METHODS

Under the conditions established by 90.4, the AHJ can permit alternative methods or waive specific requirements when equivalent safety objectives can be achieved.

That doesn't mean "do whatever you want."
