No one should be forced to join a organization in order to receive access to a code document for free.

1.  As a member of the IAEI, "after three consecutive renewals you are eligible to receive a free National Electrical Code (NEC) book" as found here: https://www.iaei.org/Online/Benefits.aspx

2.  I've been a member of IAEI for years and I've have received free NEC Code books.  I've enjoyed the portable NFPA NEC portable "phone app" which did not required an internet connection found here: https://www.nfpa.org/Codes-and-Standards/All-Codes-and-Standards/NFPA-digital-products - also now not available.

3.  In other words, since I'm forced to use only the portable "paper copy," I'd rather receive it for free with other IAEI member benefits.

All the best,

    The best price I've found for the handbook is at Barnes & Noble.
    If you go into the store you have to ask for the internet price.
    Also at least at my store they had it behind the counter in case
    you go looking for it.

                I've heard from multiple sources and confirmed myself
                that you can't get the portable pdf of the NEC
                starting with the 2020 edition. The link that Lorenzo
                shared seems to indicate that older versions including
                2017 edition are available in a digital format.

                    Wrenches,

                    I was told that the NEC 2020 will not be available
                    as a file. You can
                    only access on line, or via the book.  Has anyone
                    confirmed this? It
                    seems pretty certain.   How many times is one out
                    in the field and needs
                    to reference the NEC?  Now to do so, you will need
                    the book or a
                    connection to the Internet.  I am having a hard
                    time believing that NFPA
                    would be this short-sighted.  Chris
