role of national electric code in the design of electrical installation
The largest conductor listed in the National Electrical Code is a 2000 kcmil.
Yes, but only factory assembled units listed as such.
Beats me, the National Electrical Code does not list a #9 awg wire.
Electrical wire size is directly dependant on the load amperage that is connected to it. The higher the load amperage, the larger the cross sectional area of the wire needs to be. The connected amperage to a conductor is determined by a group of electrical experts and their results are then written into the latest addition of the electrical code book of the country in which you live.
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).
The National Electrical Code® is published as NFPA 70, the NEC®, in addition to NFPA 70A for one- and two-family dwellings, NFPA 70B for Electrical Equipment Maintenance and NFPA 70E, the Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace®.

role of national electric code in the design of electrical installation
In most countries, regulations and standards related to electrical wiring are determined by a national or regional electrical code, such as the National Electrical Code (NEC) in the United States or the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standards in Europe. These codes are typically developed by governmental or industry organizations to ensure the safety and reliability of electrical installations.
The National Electrical Code under the National Fire Protection Association is the code necessary to ensure compliance to safety regulations. The Underwriters Laboratories organization is typically used and certifies products.
NFPA 70
Yes, they are required by the national electric code.
It does not
It is a electrical code rule taken from the National Electrical Code book. It has to do with multi wire branch circuits.
In the USA, the National Electrical Code is NFPA 70. There are several national fire codes, including National Fire Code (also called Uniform Fire Code); NFPA 1 (National Fire Protection Association) and the International Fire Code (International Code Council). Each of these references hundreds of other codes and standards, including Life Safety Code, Building Code, Electrical Code, etc.
