Priceless Jem.

Pros
Everything I expected and way more. Thank you!

It seems a light rain and dirty hands could render it useless fairly quick. Maybe not tho. I'm not going to test it [:

Great Book

Excellent reference to have for most electrical situations and comes with great tabs.

Cons
There are a few sections that really don't need to be in the book. Namely the safety section, which is mostly filled with common sense knowledge or just information that you're never going to need to reference, the history section, and the common electrical tools section aside from the information on testers. In place of those pages, it would be nice to have the common symbols for blueprints expanded. Electrical symbols aren't the only symbols I need to identify and they're already the ones I'm the most familiar with. Also, the numbers for three phase circuits could be expanded. It's a lot faster to reference a chart when doing a lot of circuits at once and it's not uncommon for them to go into the hundreds. The last thing would be the durability of the book. Hauling it around on a jobsite puts a lot of wear on it quickly. I would be very interested in buying a compact, durable carrying case if it was offered.

The book is laid out well with quality illustrations and the charts are easy to read. The paper seems to be of a better quality than other spiral-bound electrical references.

Best reference book on earth

November 29, 2021 By: Alex Vidrine, Sirius Technologies (Eunice, United States)

Comments
Absolutely the best and most thorough electrical reference book I've ever found, seen, heard of, or purchased. It has literally every thing you could possibly think of. I loved it so much I went ahead and bought the Fastener one and Engineering one as well and as in thought, those did not disappoint either

Pros
Thorough information on every topic and sub topic

Cons
Wish yall also offered a slightly bigger size for the shop or to keep in truck
 

This is the most useful tool I own as an electrical engineer

November 23, 2021 By: Magnolia Cook (Englewood , United States)

I truly can’t believe something so perfect is able to exist in this world. It’s like a vibrant double-rainbow, a chance encounter with a newborn dolphin, or a fox that plays peek-a-boo with you through the kitchen window; it’s one of a handful of rare miracles that a single person will get to experience in their lifetime. I cherish this book and take it with me everywhere, whether that’s at my desk, in the field, or tucked underneath my pillow for better dreams.

Pros
In all honesty, I love this book. It has every formula I have ever needed to use as a working engineer. I reference the conductor ampacity, motor FLA, and formulae sections very frequently, with occasional flipping around for other useful power and lighting information. It fits perfectly in my back pocket while still being incredibly readable. The bookmark tabs help you personalize the book to your specific engineering needs, and the pages are very hard to damage, making it a great pocket reference in the shop or the field. This is hands down the best electrical engineering all-in-one reference I have ever seen in my life.

Cons
My one and ONLY gripe with this book is the spiral binding; the pages tend to get caught around it and come loose from the binding. A continuous spiral binding, rather than having the ends disconnected, could solve this problem.
