The informational note in the proposal says
"The provision for a (future) grounded conductor is to
provide power to electronic lighting control devices."

Is there someplace where this proposed new code is posted online? I
am curious as to what it all says, and whether it would apply to
single pole switches or to all switches -- including 3-way switches,
for example.

Thanks for posting the link. I'll check it out.

Do you happen to know where in the code the part about having a neutral at
the switch is cited? I can search and try to find it, but if you know
which
section I should look at, that would help.


That will be in article 404.2(C) of the 2011 code.


Excellent. Thanks! I just read it. I think it also answers a question I
had about 3-way switches. It looks like there is an exception for 3-way
switches where the switch is wired as a switch loop.
