Mike Holt Enterprises Understanding the NEC

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 2023 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.

Servicing and Maintenance of Equipment [110.17]

Perhaps one of the most interesting changes in the 2023 National Electrical Code is the addition of section 110.17 which requires that servicing and maintenance of equipment must be performed by qualified personnel. This new rule has an informational note referencing NFPA 70B Recommended Practice for Electrical Equipment Maintenance to guide Code users on the standard related to preventative maintenance for electrical equipment.

To learn more about this topic, take a few minutes to read the attached text and watch the video where Mike and the team discuss this new rule added to the 2023 NEC.

For more information on this topic, get a copy of Mike Holt's 2023 Changes to the National Electrical Code video program and textbook.

  • NFPA is no longer a Recommended Practice. It is now a Standard. It may take a few years for all of the references to get updated.
