Question:
Greetings Friends,
My question is related to the figures that appear occasionally in the NEC. Are they mandatory? Thanks for your opinion on this.

Answer:
Hello Patrick,
Figures in the NEC are mandatory unless the figure is identified as an "Informational Note Figure." As an Example, refer to Informational Note Figure 250.126 that shows an example of a grounding symbol as compared to Figure 250.1 which shows the arrangement of Article 250 relative to how the parts apply.
