NEC · 2023 National Electrical Code

§314.16 · Box-fill calculations in NW Indiana apply the 2023 cubic-inch values without local modification; the local amendment adopts the NEC table without local addition.

Local amendment on §314.16 for the NEC 2023 NW Indiana jurisdiction.

Plain-English explainer

The NW Indiana amendment to §314.16 is "no local modification" — the cubic-inch values match the 2023 NEC table. The drafter cites it to make clear the local authority does not tighten or relax the box-fill rule.

Why inspectors flag this

A crew that sizes to an older code will still pass the NW Indiana rough-in; the drafter surfaces the rule so the spec carries the 2023 values without modification.

As quoted in the code: See §314.16 amendment.
