Now entering a revision cycle:

NECA (National Electrical Contractors Association) Revision BSR/NECA 200-201X, Standard for Installing and Maintaining Temporary Electric Power at Construction Sites (revision of ANSI/NECA 200-2010).  Temporary construction power can be a sensitive #TotalCostofOwnership issue, not only because of the safety issues (covered in the National Electrical Code) but also because the cost of it can be covered by a construction contract General Conditions or other means.  When there is a supply point that is economical to reach then metering considerations come into play.   

This standard describes temporary electrical power and lighting systems at construction sites, operating at 600 volts or less. It covers the planning, installation, expansion, maintenance, cutover, and removal of the temporary power system. This standard is intended to ensure a safe, adequate, functional, and reliable temporary electrical power system for all trades at construction sites.
