Although there are many books on electrical installation practice that focus on calculations and regulations, Electrical Installation Designs takes a different approach: presenting typical projects to produce designs that will fit current standards.
The range of projects described includes domestic, commercial, industrial and agricultural, as well as leisure complexes. Throughout, the emphasis is on designing and completing projects in a competitive manner. Plain language explanations are given of the requirements of earthing and bonding, isolation and switching, overcurrent protection and installing cables, with guidance on inspecting, testing and certification. Electrical safety matters receive constant attention.
The Second Edition has been revised and updated to take account of Amendment 2 of the Wiring Regulations.
The book will be invaluable to electrical contractors who will be able to adapt the text's standard formats for electrical installations to suit specific jobs. Designers, consultants, and electricial installation students undoubtedly will also appreciate the authors' expert guidance on applying the Wiring Regulations.
