Abstract :
The 2002 Edition of the National Electrical Safety Code (NESC), ANSI C2, is scheduled to be published in August 2001, to be effective February 2002, succeeding the present (1997) issue of the Code. The NESC provides safety requirements for the installation, operation or maintenance of outdoor communication and electric power facilities. it therefore complements the National Electrical Code (NEC) which provides requirements for indoor facilities. The NESC is intended to primarily focus on helping ensure the safety of employees and the public, and is not intended to be a design specification or instruction manual
