Spanning the Strait is a collaborative effort between author Alan Drew and Northwest Lineman College (NLC). It is intended to be a companion to The American Lineman as it recognizes and focuses on the efforts, accomplishments, and challenges faced by linemen during the electrification of the San Francisco Bay Area. With over 200 photos and illustrations, Spanning the Strait provides a complete history of another record-breaking project built largely by linemen. This book will make a wonderful addition to any home library or great gift for power delivery professionals and retirees, family members, as well as American history enthusiasts.

Distribution Transformer Handbook, 6th Edition

Transformers for Linemen covers everything a lineworker needs to know about distribution transformers. It explains basic AC circuit concepts, transformer formulas, nameplates, pre-installation checks, single-phase connections, fusing, grounding, and load checks. Also presented are vector diagrams, delta and wye connections, phasing and paralleling banks, troubleshooting, and how to energize transformers safely. The emphasis is on overhead transformers, but padmount transformers are covered also. Color photos make learning easy. This reference is also a safety manual -- it identifies common mistakes lineworkers can make, some with severe consequences. The first half of the book explains basic principles and single-phase transformers. Some schools use these chapters to train first-year apprentices. After gaining field experience, students return for the remaining chapters that cover three-phase transformer banks.
