This is the seventh of several courses covering the changes in the 2014 edition of the National Electrical Code® (NEC®) created by the NFPA®. The 2014 NEC provides an accurate, reliable, and authoritative account of the hundreds of significant revisions in the 2014 Code.

This course provides coverage of significant changes in the 2014 National Electrical Code®. With every new edition of the NEC, some of the changes include new requirements to sections, while some of the changes include entirely new articles. Some changes are revisions to existing requirements while others are deletions to some existing requirements.

Chapter 7, which covers special conditions, is the third of the NEC chapters that deal with special topics.

As we have seen, Chapters 5 and 6 cover special occupancies and special equipment respectively. A Special Condition is a situation that doesn’t fall under the category of Special occupancies or Special Equipment, but creates a need for additional measures consistent with other NEC chapters whose aim is to ensure the safeguarding of people and property.
