Keeping up with the requirements of the Code should be the goal of
everyone involved in electrical safety. The following is what I feel is an
important rule in the 2020 NEC®, complete with
graphics and a video. I encourage you to use it as a training resource for
your organization, and share it with your colleagues.

Do you know that improper neutral-to-case connections can cause neutral currents to flow on metal parts and equipment grounding conductors? This creates a hazard known as objectionable current that can create equipment malfunction, electric shock, and fire hazards.
Read the attached text, then join Mike and the team as they discuss the causes, consequences, and elimination of objectionable current. Download the PDF to follow along with the video.
