This text covers the rules of the National Electric Code (NEC) as they apply to the installation of wiring in a house. The first seven chapters cover basic electrical code requirements. Topics include, for example, safety when working with electricity, construction symbols, connecting switches and receptacles, ground-fault circuit-interrupters and surge suppressers. The remainder of the text is devoted to a description of the wiring of an actual house. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
