Illustrated Guide to the National Electric Code FROM THE PUBLISHER
Each topic is addressed visually, with detailed illustrations that get the point across to the reader rapidly, leaving little room for misinterpretation.
While most books on the market mimic the Code's order of presentation, Illustrated Guide to the NEC concentrates all the information relevant to a specific type of occupancy in one area so that the reader avoids searching for data from numerous sources, or from numerous sections within sources.
The high-quality, well-designed worksheets in the book provide the user with the most straight forward, error-proof method of performing essential, complex calculations.
1999 Code changes stand out (by red check mark or other means) for easy identification.
Illustrations are enhanced by concise, clearly written information so that the reader doesn't spend a great deal of time searching through unnecessary material, looking for the point.
