The Illustrated Guide to the NEC uses highly detailed, technically accurate illustrations and visuals to providing a unique approach to learning the Code. The complexity of the 2008 National Electrical Code is eliminated, and clear, concise translations are provided via straightforward illustrations and clear explanations.

Ideal for beginning and master electricians alike, the book organizes material logically, covering fundamental provisions first, and then grouping code requirements by the type of occupancy, beginning with one-family dwellings, and progressing on to multi-family, commercial locations, and special occupancies. An indispensable supplement to the NEC, users will benefit from:
