This is a carry over from another thread that was discussing another subject where the NECH? was mentioned.
Question: How many members of this forum have a copy of the Official National Electrical Code Handbook??
Question: Do you also have the CD version?
Question: Have you found them useful when studying for an examination, or when making decisions at work, or in the field, and have you found anything that you disagree with in the commentary?
Question: Did you send that information to NFPA??
You can send your comments to me too if you want, and I will put them in the right hands.

I for one have some very fond experiences as an Associate Editor for the 1984 NECH?
Pete Schram, John Caloggero and I spent most of our time researching, checking with the Chairmen of the Committees, and Correlating Committee, and adding some of our own personal experiences to that commentary, and that was BC, "Before Laptop or Desktop Computers"
Today we have it easy!
I can carry the Handbook around on a computer that fits in my pocket!
It wasn't easy during the early 80's and before, and we had to read and edit stacks of paper till our eyes were bloodshot!
Question: If you feel that the NECH? is of no value, do you have suggestions for its improvement?
I have every copy of the NECH? from the beginning and have other handbooks in my library that were formatted in the same way as far back as 1915.
Please answer the questions and add any other comments you feel necessary.
PS: I am always interested in old electrical books.
