The 5th edition of Code Check Electrical has been completely revised to the 2008 National Electrical Code, the most widely used electrical code in the United States and the 2006 International Residential Code.
Whether your jurisdiction is using the 2005 NEC, the 2008 NEC, or the IRC, Code Check Electrical is the perfect field guide for electrical inspections. This edition is completely updated, with 22 tables and lavishly illustrated with 73 drawings. It includes a summary of the changes in the 2008 codes, and these are highlighted throughout the text so that the book can be used in areas that are still on the previous NEC. The book is also cross-referenced to the International Residential Code. It is an ideal companion for field inspections, plan review, NEC study, and for helping to avoid violations on construction projects.
It contains sections on grounding, bonding, services, panels, branch circuits, ampacity, wiring methods, boxes, GFCIs & AFCIs, appliances, lighting, switches, receptacles, pools & spas, photovoltaics, and much more. This book is in the popular flip-chart format, with spill-proof pages for durability and field use. A new feature highlights significant code changes throughout the text, summarized in a special section at the end of the book.
