Five authorities on electrical codes are:

National Electrical Code (NEC) Classification (USA only)—a recognized authority on safe electrical 
wiring. Federal, state, and local governments use NEC standards to establish their own laws, 
ordinances, and codes on wiring specifications. The NEC classification is published by the National 
Fire Protection Association (NFPA). The address is NFPA; 1 Batterymarch Park; Quincy, 
Massachusetts 02269 USA. www.nfpa.org

Underwriters’ Laboratory (UL) (USA only)—an independent research and testing laboratory. UL 
evaluates the performance and capability of electrical wiring and equipment to determine whether 
they meet certain safety standards when properly used. Acceptance is usually indicated by the 
words “UL Approved” or “UL Listed.” The address is UL; 333 Pfingsten Road; Northbrook, Illinois 
60062-2096 USA. www.ul.com

National Electrical Manufacturing Association (NEMA) (USA only)—an organization of electrical 
product manufacturers. Members develop consensus standards for cables, wiring, and electrical 
components. The address is NEMA; 2101 L Street N.W.; Washington, D.C. 20037 USA.

Electronics Industry Association (EIA)—a trade association that develops technical standards, 
disseminates marketing data, and maintains contact with government agencies in matters relating to 
the electronics industry. The address is EIA; 2001 Eye Street N.W.; Washington, D.C. 20006 USA.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC)—a commission that regulates all interstate and foreign 
electrical communication systems that originate in the United States according to the 
Communications Act of 1934. The FCC regulates all U.S. telephone and cable systems. The address is 
FCC; 1919 M Street N.W.; Washington, D.C. 20554 USA.

You should consider the following recommendations for your wiring closet:

Ensure that your system is easily accessible for installation and service. See “Rack Specifications and 
Recommendations” on page 45 for specific recommendations.

Use appropriate AC power for your switch, as described in Table 16.
