Kudos to New Hampshire for their Common Installation Deficiencies List 

The Bureau of Electrical Safety and Licensing and the Electricians' Licensing Board in conjunction with the State Electrical Inspectors, municipal electrical and building inspectors and other representatives of the electrical industry in the State of New Hampshire have put together a list of common installation deficiencies and problems encountered by the Bureau’s office staff relative to the State's electricians licensing law and the Electrician’s Board administrative rules. The state has also incorporated these installation deficiencies as part of their CEU requirement.

Our customer Art Horton offered his comments and suggestions which we’d like to share with you:

I read the 14 pages this evening and was blown away that any state would take the time to obtain input from inspectors, teachers and folks in the field and list a number of common problems they see on a regular basis along with their solutions and put them into a well written and easy to understand document. I would highly recommend you consider (if NH allows it) incorporating the information into your curriculum for other states. As you are aware the average field person does not have the time (nor does the employer allow it because they must make a profit on the worker or they don't have a job) to become a highly up to date NEC guru...So anything you can do to make it easier and quicker to understand I feel will help the average worker immensely.

We agree and perhaps by spreading the word about what NH has done other states will follow suit.
