Two very important considerations regarding electrical equipment and electrical safety are:

- Is the equipment properly installed?
- Is the equipment properly maintained?

I'm pleased to introduce Mr. Joe Tedesco and his vast library of photos showing code violations, bizarre situation that sometimes make you just want to shake your head and walk away.

He has dedicated his career to NFPA codes and standards and has been deeply involved with many aspects over his long career. We are fortunate to have his contributions in this special section.

Feel free to comment on each and point out the violations, problems etc.
