This well-established guide to electrical distribution and utilization systems is written from the perspective of someone designing and installing electrical wiring and provides a thorough overview of the National Electrical Code. Important safety systems are addressed and explained, as are techniques for making the best use of electrical tools. In particular, residential and farm wiring is addressed, including instructions for how to select service equipment, modern lighting, and common motors. Extensive coverage is also given to commercial wiring, with a discussion of how to select wires to match anticipated loads so detailed that it will appear as an example in the 2005 National Electrical Code. Throughout, advice is accessible enough for the amateur and meticulous enough for a professional.
