درباره این اپیزود
In this episode, we sit down with two heavyweights in the electrical code world: Kyle Krueger, Executive Director of Codes and Standards at NECA, and Chad Kennedy, Director of Industry Standards at Schneider Electric. These two are not just interpreting the NEC. They are actively shaping the 2026 code cycle.
We cover some of the most important updates coming in the 2026 NEC, including:
- Major changes to service disconnects for homes and retrofits
- New arc flash labeling rules and how they will be enforced
- EV receptacle confusion and how the code is ahead of product listings
- High-frequency GFCIs and what they solve
- Why "limited energy" is replacing "low voltage"
- Energy Management Systems and how they can help avoid service upgrades
- How fast the NEC is adapting to new technology
Whether you're an apprentice or a master electrician, this episode is packed with information you will want to know before the new code takes effect.
Special thanks to Schneider Electric and NECA for supporting this episode and for being leaders in advancing safety and standards across the industry.
