Excerpt from Proposed National Electrical Safety Code: Preliminary Edition, Submitted for Discussion and Criticism Not for Adoption

It is the hope of the Bureau of Standards that when the code has been revised once more and approved by the Washington conference and republished, it may be adopted very generally and with the minimum of changes by individual States or cities. It is suggested, however, that the first year may be made a trial year, during which the companies, inspectors, and commissions may become thoroughly acquainted' with its practical operation, and that it be not enforced in any strict sense until after the first year. We believe that if the utilities and other companies com ing under it are invited to try out the code, to comply as well as they can, to report wherein it is not satisfactory, and to assist in the effort to remedy its defects by revision at the end of the first year, far better results will be attained in the end than if it is made compulsory at the start. Some commissions and cities might delay adopting it formally if a strict enforcement were expected from the beginning, whereas they might be entirely willing to adopt it at once in the experimental way suggested. It is believed that this plan will secure the fullest cooperation of all interests concerned, which is much to be desired.
