They do offer the NEC book along with the deal. This leaves me with an extra 2011, as I already bought the spiral bound edition with tabs. <br>
<br>The CD ROM versions I've been getting for well over a decade were searchable and printable. The search feature of each new edition was of lower quality than the previous. With the NEC Plus, we will need to pay up each year instead of every three. Hopefully it has features that will make it worth it. <br>
<br>Thanks,<br><br>Drake <br><br>At 02:27 PM 2/15/2011, you wrote:<br><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">We subscribed to NECplus about a month ago. At the time they were giving a free hard copy of the code book along with the subscription which is a great deal. I would definitely recommend signing up if they are still offering that deal. It's always nice being able to flip through a real book but the online search capability is quite good. Searching for "disconnect" or "ground electrode," for example brings up fast results which are easy to hone in on. I'm getting used to it now and I really like it. The benefit is that you can login at any time wherever you have internet and check out the code. Then you can print out relevant sections if needed.<br>

The NFPA won't be selling the NEC on the CD ROM this cycle. They do have a pdf version, but that doesn't seem as useful. How does the NEC Plus work for a searchable and printable NEC Handbook? <br>
