Ask Shorty
ChatGPT pluginCited answers from NEC 2026
Ask Shorty answers electrical code questions from the 2026 National Electrical Code. Each claim names the section it came from, and Shorty checks every section against the 2026 code text. Cited sections collect in a side panel so you can look them up in your code book or show the inspector. Run 16 field calculators, from voltage drop and box fill to conduit bending, and see each result with the sections it applies. Open the Ask Shorty app from the sidebar for calculators and exam prep with practice questions and chapter tests for all 9 NEC chapters. Set a default occupancy and units in settings. Ask Shorty is a reference tool, not professional advice. Check your adopted code and your AHJ.
