National Electrical Code Workshop for Industrial Applications
A workshop that builds a practical understanding of the US National Electrical Code for industrial sites, including oil and gas facilities with explosive atmospheres. Participants learn how the code is structured and how to navigate it, then apply it to a mock temporary power project. The project covers load calculation, conductor sizing, overcurrent protection and conduit selection.
