NEC 90.22: inspector tips
NEC 90.22 explained: inspector tips. Field-ready for working electricians.
I need to flag a concern before writing this. NEC Article 90 (Introduction) in current editions ends at 90.9. The sections are:
- 90.1 Purpose
- 90.2 Scope
- 90.3 Code Arrangement
- 90.4 Enforcement
- 90.5 Mandatory/Permissive Rules
- 90.6 Formal Interpretations
- 90.7 Examination of Equipment
- 90.8 Wiring Planning
- 90.9 Units of Measurement
There is no 90.22 in NEC 2020 or 2023. Possibilities:
1. You meant **NEC 110.22** (Identification of Disconnecting Means), a real and frequently-cited section that inspectors flag often.
2. You meant **NEC 210.22** (recent editions retitle around branch-circuit loads).
3. You meant **NFPA 90A 2.2** or similar non-NEC reference.
4. The content pipeline generated a non-existent citation.
Since Ask BONBON serves working electricians making field decisions, I don't want to fabricate content under a code section that doesn't exist. Which article did you intend? My best guess is **110.22** given the "inspector tips" angle, that section is a common red-tag source (legibility, durability, series-rated marking).
Confirm the section and I'll write the post.
