[RE-wrenches] NEC 2020 not available as a portable PDF?

Thu Jan 9 11:38:13 EST 2020

FYI -

1.  As a member of the IAEI, "after three consecutive renewals you are
eligible to receive a free National Electrical Code (NEC) book" as found
here:  https://www.iaei.org/Online/Benefits.aspx

2.  I've been a member of IAEI for years and I've have received free NEC
Code books.  I've enjoyed the portable NFPA NEC portable "phone app" which
did not required an internet connection found here:
https://www.nfpa.org/Codes-and-Standards/All-Codes-and-Standards/NFPA-digital-products
- also now not available.

3.  In other words, since I'm forced to use only the portable "paper copy,"
I'd rather receive it for free with other IAEI member benefits.

All the best,
