Review:

“Buy this book!  Carol Fey is a master at putting the spoken word into print.  This little book contains some of the best and most visual analogies I’ve ever read in a technical book.  Wait until you get to the part about the fishing poles!”—Dan Holohan, Author of “Pumping Away” and “Hydronic Radiant Heating”

 

“Finally.... A book on basic electricity that is not only good, but easy and FUN as well!” –Russ Williams, Customer Training Consultant, Honeywell

 

“No technician should leave home without it.  My lead technician read it once and immediately began to understand what it was he was doing in the field of controls.  It’s a great confidence builder.  It can open the eyes of some of most experienced technicians.” – Mark Eatherton, Contractor and Industry Educator
