NEC provides some sort of mechanism for submitting questions and comments to be considered for the next revision, yes? Should we risk "picking a fight" with the auto makers lobby and be petitioning for section 625 to be revised/removed? If so, is it the norm for NEC to take comments from individuals, or only established groups? If a group, would comments from the EAA be appropriate? (and if individuals, can Lee write comments for us all to use :-) _________ Jim Coate 1992 Chevy S10 1970's Elec-Trak http://www.eeevee.com
