2008 Nec


I see the new 2008 Nec is out and i'm looking for the best way to buy. I would like the book, pocket guide, and probably a disk?. Any suggestions??

A package deal with the IBC/Irc would be good too. Thanks..

Re: 2008 Nec


I'm not sure if like the way they've shaded the changes that have been made. Why not just keep it the way it was? Always reinventing the wheel I guess.

The Thompson/ Delmar "Changes" book is just as thick as the '05 changes book was, though.

One notable change is the exception to 210.8 (5) that previously permitted receptacles not readily accessible (in an unfinshed basement) to not be GFCI protected now have to be GFCI protected.
