Re: Isolation of neutral at Sub Panels
How about:
1. continuing education for the electrical industry.
2. How to use the UL White Book with the NEC.
3. Where are GOOD sources of educational information on the internet.
4. What do different states require for code. list from state to state.
5. what are good ideas for a better working relationship with contractors and inspectors.
6. Also with the Utility companies
7. For the Merit or open shops what about the training of the men in the field, apprentices and journeymen. Extending this to any interested, although the open shop really has not much formal education for the men/women.
8. How about teaching the consumer about safety and how to hire a competent EC. This could lead into homeowner awareness and proper preventative maintenance on a residential level, especially in some of the older parts of the country.
9. How about the importance of the local level monthly meetings for contractors and men, as in contractor associations and IAEI type of meetings.
10. Keeping up with technology and the equipment that is constantly changing. What now seems to be the monthly changes we see and how to keep up with them. Have a manufacturers corner or something like that, where we can get direct info from them. Status Qoe these days is CHANGE!!!
11. Mutual respect between the contractor and his/her men. There is so much disrespect these days, it cannot be helping our industry. What is the answer, how do both sides start rethinking?
12.Getting more involved in the code making process. Maybe this or other forums can work together in the proposal process, a great sense of comradery and satisfaction.
13. An instructors forum, to help each other out with teaching strategies and instructional information.
These are a start, some of them may be idealistic, but isn't that what it is all about?
