The University of Michigan has supported the voice of the United States education facility industry since 1993 — the second longest tenure of any voice in the United States. That voice has survived several organizational changes but remains intact and will continue its Safer-Simpler-Lower Cost-Longer Lasting priorities on Code Panel 3 in the 2029 Edition.
Today, during our customary “Open Door” teleconference we will examine the technical concepts under the purview of Code Panel 4; among them:
Article 690 Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Systems
Article 691 Large-Scale Photovoltaic (PV) Electric Supply Stations
Article 694 Wind Electric Systems
Article 705 Interconnected Electric Power Production Sources
Article 710 Stand-Alone Systems
Public Input on the 2029 Edition will be received until April 9, 2026.

- It is recommended that all areas of an educational building have wireless coverage unless prohibited
