Stallcup's® Electrical Grounding
and Bonding Simplified, 2008
James G. Stallcup
Gain a firm understanding of the
National Electrical Code® and how it applies to grounding and
bonding techniques with the 2008 Edition of
Stallcup's® Electrical Grounding and Bonding Simplified.
Based on the
2008 NEC®, this
hands-on guide illustrates Code provisions concerning circuit and
system grounding; grounding electrode systems and electrode
conductors; enclosure, raceway, and service cabling grounding;
bonding; equipment grounding and equipment grounding conductors; and
much more.
Intuitively arranged so general
requirements are introduced before more specific and complex topics,
this text places grounding and bonding into proper perspective,
helping users gain a foundational knowledge of the topic.
With numerous illustrations and
figures to clarify proper installation and application procedures
Stallcup's® is an essential resource for
electricians.
