Distribution and Transmission Line Technology -- Updated with
New NEC Rules and Technical Advances
Overview
First published in 1928, The Lineman's and Cableman's Handbook has
shown generations of line and cable workers how to construct,
operate, and maintain electrical transmission and distribution
lines, both overhead and underground. Now updated for today’s
professionals, the new Eleventh Edition explains the basic
principles, equipment, standards, and safety regulations required
for optimal on-the-job performance.
