Synopsis

Wiring Simplifieds long popularity comes because it is kept up-to-date and is written in clear, easy-to-understand language that is simple enough for the beginner to follow, with technical accuracy that satisfies both professioanl electricians and teachers and vocational schools.
Detailed instructions explain how to do a complete, safe wiring installation in a new home and to modernize the wiring in an older home. Over 225 drawings show you how to do covered in the text.
Explanations emphasize why things are done in a particular way to help you understand and apply wiring principles to what you are doing.
Topics covered also include the different kinds and sizes of wire, cable, and conduit; the basic of circuits; the importance of grounding for the prevention of shock, fire, and damage; and wiring for heavy appliances and motors.
Troubleshooting chapter cover problems such as lamps that won't light; fluorescent fixtures that flicker or glow at the ends; wall switches; receptacles, and plugs that need replacing; and doorbells that won't ring.

The 38th edition has been extensively rewritten and 16 pages have been added.

A glossary of terms is a new feature, and discussion of security systems, telephone wiring, central vacuum systems, surge protectors for computers and radio--controlled switches has been added.
The index has been expanded by seven pages and now has code references.
