More than you ever wanted to know about wiring, fuses, circuit breakers and such.

I remember the color code but electrical code is a dictatorial method of gaining control of our lives, spy in us and extract monies out of our pockets through our government dictatorship. Why would everyone need and why would a national organization force new construction to have a charge station for an electric car forced upon them? Why are building codes so stringent and expensive that they make building a house too expensive for rural America? There are vacant lots near me where people tried to build their dream home but their dream was smashed by government “fees”/taxes.

When I was in Santiago, Chile I was horrified about the utility wiring. It was like this:

The two biggest improvements in the last 20 years have been the requirement for GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) devices, and then the requirement for AFCI (arc fault circuit interrupter) devices. The AFCI can detect bad wiring that is sparking. Amazing stuff compared to the crude Edison base fuses which were was standard in my youth.

Thanks for the free access to the NEC! I paid a lot for that in the past.

Same for building codes, use them quite a bit. The pretty much ingrained in my head though
