Question Looking for 08 nec code book
I am looking for 2008 nec code book. The libraries locally have had theirs taken. No local book stores have them. Tried buying them online used and they are just a few dollars cheaper than brand new. Don't want to spend too much in 2011 book will be outdated.

You should be able to pick one up at your supply house for less than 30 bucks now. I saw them for that at one that I go to.

A place that sells electrical supplies. REAL electrical supply houses, not Lowes or Home Depot.

then you need to buy the 08 code book, What kind of test are you taking that requires the NEC and you don't know what a " Supply house " is ?

They should make change in the new code article definitions

90.72 "supply House" Place where local Hill billy fks up even the simplest order, place where you need to check prices on a daily basis, place where sometimes they give free hot dogs. place where they insist that Home depot's parts are lower quality
