Ask BONBON (formerly Ask NETA) is the AI code assistant built for electricians, apprentices, journeymen, master electricians, contractors, inspectors and instructors. It covers the NEC and the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).

CITED CODE ANSWERS
Stop flipping through the code book. Ask a question the way you would ask a master on the job, like "What size wire do I need for a 60 amp subpanel?" Ask BONBON gives you a clear answer and the article it comes from, so you can check it yourself.

NEC 2026 IS HERE
Ask BONBON now covers NEC 2026. See what changed from the last edition on the 2026 NEC Changes screen, so you are ready before your area adopts it.

22 ELECTRICIAN CALCULATORS
Conduit fill, voltage drop, box fill, wire sizing, load calculations and more. Fast inputs built for the jobsite, with the code reference shown.

BLUEPRINTS TO PLAN OVERVIEW
Upload electrical plans as a PDF or photo. Ask BONBON reads the plan set and builds a Plan Overview of the job to help you start your estimate.

PHOTO CHECKS AND INSPECTION REPORTS
Upload photos of your rough-in or finished work. Get findings checked against the code so you can fix problems before the inspector shows up. Fewer callbacks, fewer red tags.

MASTER CLASS EXAM PREP
Studying for your journeyman or master electrician exam? Master Class gives you practice questions, code drills and calculation practice, with the why behind every answer.

ANY LANGUAGE, BY VOICE OR TEXT
Ask in English, Spanish or another language and get the answer in that language. Talk to it hands-free on the job. Great for mixed crews and apprentices.

CANADA: CEC SUPPORT

BUILT FOR THE WHOLE TRADE
Apprentices learn the why behind the code. Journeymen get fast answers on the job. Contractors check plans and bids. Inspectors and instructors get a quick second reference.

Ratings and reviews

Awesome app for electricians. It gives you the capability of asking any electrical and code-related questions you can think of and gives you detailed responses with the code articles too. It sure beats having to pull out the NEC and thumb through it every time you're unsure about something.

this is a fantastic app. easy to use and user friendly. although I wish the theme setting between light and dark was permanently set in the settings section. if you have to change the setting every time you open the app.

Best app for electricians, hands down, and it is free, what the heck!
