✦ Synopsis

He will be interested in the section on residence wiring which outlines the electrical wiring requirements for the modern house.

Symbols, abbreviations, formulas and examples and nearly a hundred other tables and lists make the book useful.

But since it is primarily a reference book, explicit instructions for planning and executing the wiring for a building are not given.

The book will be useful for the high school student and as a reference work for the neophyte electrician.
