As for licencing, only Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, New York, Pennsylvania, and Texas do not licence electricians.

The electrical review committee last met in November 2008 and recommended the adoption of the 2008 NEC without amendment. and have forwarded their recommendations to the Indiana Department of Homeland Security Commerce Division.
