This is a calculations book aimed at working electricians and
those attempting to pass the Electrician’s Exam. Like nothing
currently on the market, this manual details and annotates key
calculations electricians use in the field.
Electricians can either learn the underpinnings of the
calculation or simply “plub and chug” their way through the
problem.
A final chapter provides the basics of the algebra and
trigonometry used throughout the book, and a wealth of self-tests
are also included.
