Nice field reference

It replaced my ugly's. I've skimmed the book and it's grouped well.

Pros
a lot of thought went into producing the book! I really liked that it came with tabs and blank ones for me to flag pages of interest.

Cons
Box fill info is in the motor section. I had to look to find it, I would put it with conduit fill. Minimum clearances is lighting. Still a handy little reference instead of whipping out my 70

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

January 14, 2022 By: Luke Herring, P1 Group (Meriden, United States)

Comments
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.
