Book Reviews of National Electrical Code 2008 (National Fire Protection Association National Electrical Code)

Book Review: 2008 National electric Code
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the 2008 version of the National Electric Code that is used as the basis for many local electrical codes. The code provides recommendations for the safe installation of electrical wiring, switching and disconnect equipment and fixed electrical equipment in residences, business locations and specialized locations such as movie and live stage theaters. This material is written for trained electricians and assumes some knowledge of electrical terms, wiring practices, etc.. Non-professionals will probably be better off with one of the many "how-to" guides avaialble.

Summary of National Electrical Code 2008 (National Fire Protection Association National Electrical Code)

The world's most widely adopted safety code, the National Electrical Code (NEC) is now advancing electrical safety requirements with the 2008 edition in an effort to maximize public safety, emergency preparation, and electrical worker protection. With regulations for electrical wiring and equipment in virtually all types of buildings, this new edition responds to industry needs with expanded requirements based on research, new technologies, and recent events. A must-have for anyone involved in electrical design, installation, inspection, and safety, this edition has been updated for enhanced usability in the field, making it ideal for handling on-the-job electrical situations safely and effectively. Delmar, a part of Cengage Learning is pleased to make this authoritative reference from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) available directly from us, for the convenience of our customers who work in and around the electrical trades. It may be used independently, or as a companion to any electrical book, including Delmar's best-selling wiring series, as well as our guides to using the NEC.
