    Summary: Poor on Service Entrance
    Comment: This appears to be a text book and it is cumbersome, poorly organized, and full of needless detail on strange stuff. I only looked at it for the service entrance and it is very weak to the point that after spending about 5 minutes with it that I took it back. There was simply not sufficient detail on the service entrance topic to be useful. I have looked at the Ray Caufield book and it is better, but it seems dated to me and done by an old timer that may not really have the technical details down. I'm still looking for a good residential wiring book.

    Summary: Only book you'll need
    Comment: I had a carpenter frame a second story addition to my house, I had decided to do all electrical work myself...and have it inspected. The space had 2 bedrooms, bathroom and a hallway. I had a bunch of books including this one. I must say that each time I was looking for an answer, I found it in this book, from calculation of box volume required for a given amount of wires, to submitting my plan drawings to the town for permit. If you're doing some serious work or simple work and you don't want to be shuffling between 5 books, just get this one. I should add that I passed the inspections (rough and finished work) on the first time.

    Summary: only if you want to pass the exam
    Comment: unless you are trying to pass the NEC exam, this book will be way over your head.

    It not only has tons of equations (which are useless to the average homewoner), but it has practice exams at the end of each chapter.

    don't buy it if you just want to remodel your home. It's great for the exam.....i suppose.

    i think the title should be clear that this book is not for the average homewoner.

    Summary: An Amazing Book!
    Comment: I have the Black & Decker Complete Guide to Home Wiring but it was published in 2002. I saw the new third edition was published in 2005. I like the Black & Decker Complete Guide Books because they have amazing illustrations. They educate you just enough for you to realize that you need a much better book. I wanted an extremely comprehensive book that included the new 2008 national electrical code. My search led me to this book.
    This is a text book. A different reviewer wrote that this was not a reference book. I disagree. The purpose of a text book is to thoroughly educate a novice on a specific topic. This book is extremely informative. I purchased the paperback edition. This book is well worth the money. This is the book that you want to buy. Your search is over.
