What was the first code published by the National Fire Protection Association?
Prior to its actual "organization", the founding members of the NFPA issued "Rules for Installation of Automatic Sprinkler Protection" in 1895. There was an organizational meeting in 1896, and in 1897 committees were established for Fire Sprinklers, Fire Hose and Hydrants, and Fire Doors and Windows. Around the same time, in 1897, the consolidated "Rules" for electrical installations also were issued, becoming the National Electrical Code, quickly adopted in lieu of the five or more existing, but incompatible, "standards." The National "fire code" was published much later.
Why is it important to follow the national electrical code and local and state code?

The rules in the code may sometimes seem strange and arbitrary, but all are backed by sound principles.
