is this a new law for 2011 or was it put in the books nad not adopted to2012
That is in the 2011 NEC code book when it came out January 2011
Every local jurisdiction has their own time when they adopt. Most have adopted the 2011
But the NEC book is not in enforce to the following year is that correct
NEC was adopted 2011 January
Any city or county can adopt the next year or whenever. That is their call.
Mine adopted January 2011
New code every 3 years

Call the county permits office
Sometimes they list it on their websites
