This book contains the latest standards in the electrical industry. The pictures in the book also give you a head start on working with circuits. Rating: - NEC 2008 HandbookThis is not a book for the average do-it-yourself. It is, however, the Bible for professional and apprentice electricians, engineers, professional inspectors, and construction professionals who design, build, maintain, and approve residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural electrical systems. If you are just looking to remodel your bathroom you don't need to buy this book---though you may want to refer to it. If you are making a living in the construction trades, then this book is an ...
