Cracking the Code (Paperback)

Paperback. Cracking the Code: A Practical Guide to the NEC is an approachable, effective text that teaches students the structure and organization of the National Electrical Code(R) (NEC). Because the NEC is a constantly evolving standard and far too vast to memorize, author Rob Zachariason uses a unique approach to develop a book that focuses on teaching students how to navigate the structure of the NEC, rather than merely replicating the information found in the code. The book is divided into two parts: the first half focuses on teaching students where information is located and how to use the NEC, while the second half focuses on specific code-related design and calculation applications. Pro Tips provide real-world examples of the chapter content and help to tie in other code requirements. Examples show relevant, code-based applications and calculations being solved with step-by-step explanations. Navigation Tables show all of the sections contained in important articles, providing students a great level of detail. Keywords at the end of each unit dedicated to an NEC chapter, list important keywords that are required to know when navigating the NEC. The end-of-unit sections use a building-block approach, beginning with simple multiple-choice questions on NEC structure, to finding information in a certain NEC chapter, to finding information in all of the chapters learned up to that point.
