Review: Best book on residential wiring! - Buy it and read it. You will be glad you did. Some of the other residential wiring books have oodles of color photos but not as much substance. This author has great photos illustrating his points, but he also tells you what you need to know: Why you don't want multiwire (common neutral) circuits. Why one ground rod may not save your expensive appliances and electronics. Why, when building a new home, you want extra empty breaker slots in your panel. Why you do not bond neutral to ground in a sub-panel. How to plan for later upgrades and expansions. Why you should often run 12 gauge even if the code allows 14. Why backstabbing an outlet may be easy but you will pay later. Why the least expensive receptacles are a bad choice, and so on. Tired of replacing your well pump after it gets fried by lightning? The author has solutions. Wondering what tools you need to work on your wiring, again great advice. The author speaks from intelligence, wisdom, and a lifetime of thoughtful experience. A truly wonderful "how to" book. I've read most of the popular books on residential wiring and wish I started with this one. Kudos to the author.
Review: This book is huge. - Love this book. It has sooo much content in it and colorful photos/illustrations on every page. It took me weeks just to flip through and skim every chapter. The index and table of contents are well laid out and easy to navigate if you have a specific topic you need to research quickly. I also think the tools chapter was so helpful. Knowing which tools to have for the job/what professionals use in the field makes it so much easier. This is the one to buy if you’re looking to have a library on home improvement stuff and you want a solid electrical book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Balance Between 'Hands On Reference' & Textbook Teaching
*by C***H on October 13, 2020*

I'm using this as an introduction for myself to learn the actual application of residential electricity. I have been a framer by trade all my life and just recently began studying electrical theory to get a foundation under me (which I highly recommend, it makes the application easy as walking) and now I'm stepping into adding this skill to my residential construction abilities. After this, all I really lack is plumbing & a little more masonry. Like I said this book is a great balance between being a hands on reference when you are actually going to do the work and just a strict textbook teaching text. I feel like I wasn't shorted anything I needed to know. Throughly recommend it. I just recently fixed some electrical issues on my own house and my fiancés parents. Its a good way to start getting your feet wet in any new trade. They say the greatest teacher is necessity! And we have needed those things fixed for years. Anyhow I highly recommend this book for the beginner in doing residential electricity. What else can be recommended to an aspiring electrician? 1) Electricity One-Seven by Harry Mileaf (This is the go-to book for all electrical theory, physics and mathematics needed but its quite expensive since it is no longer being printed) or Basic Electricity by Van Valkenburgh, Nooger and Neville, Inc. (this is equally impressive) 2) Any up to date Electrical Codes book. Especially if you are wiring a new project without anyone to contact. You'll need to be able to pass inspection. Uglys Electrical Reference is a trade-wide trusted source for electricians.
