Electrical Wiring Commercial | 16th Edition

Written for industrial wiring courses at two-year community and technical colleges, ELECTRICAL WIRING INDUSTRIAL, 16th Edition, walks learners step by step through an industrial building -- equipping them with all the basics for installing wiring systems. A set of blueprints included with the text enables students to apply chapter concepts to an actual industrial building as they progress through the book and continue to build upon their news skills. The new edition also includes expanded coverage of motor installation, service entrances, transformers, motor control symbols, and how to select conductors for equipment. ELECTRICAL WIRING INDUSTRIAL, 16th Edition completes Cengage's NEC-based Electrical Wiring series, which includes ELECTRICAL WIRING RESIDENTIAL and ELECTRICAL WIRING COMMERCIAL. All books in this series have been thoroughly updated to reflect the 2017 National Electric Code, the standard for layout and construction of electrical systems.

Featuring the latest industry standards and procedures, longtime market leader ELECTRICAL WIRING RESIDENTIAL, Nineteenth Edition, provides comprehensive, authoritative coverage of the 2017 National Electrical Code® (NEC®), as well as a thorough grounding in Electrical Knowledge and Applications. Drawing on decades of industry and classroom experience, the authors guide students step-by-step through the critical tasks and responsibilities required of today's professional electricians in both new construction and existing homes. Extremely reader friendly, the text offers detailed explanations without being overly technical, and content clearly relates the NEC to real-world installation processes. Vivid Illustrations coordinate with the latest NEC regulations to provide further clarity, and foldout plans at the back of the text give students hands-on practice applying code requirements.

This user-friendly, practical guide provides a thorough and effective introduction to the essentials of electrical grounding and bonding. Completely updated to reflect the 2017 National Electrical Code®, ELECTRICAL GROUNDING AND BONDING, Fifth Edition, features complete, current coverage of grounding and bonding requirements in both Article 250 and Chapter 5 of the NEC®. The text's detailed explanations, real-world examples, and vibrant, full-color illustrations help readers master and apply key electrical concepts, such as calculating conductor sizes, reading and interpreting NEC tables, using grounded conductor connections in DC and AC systems, managing installations and sizing, and applying "green" practices for energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. Ideal for students in degree programs, professional training, and apprenticeships such as those administered by the Independent Electrical Contractors and the electrical training ALLIANCE (formerly NJATC courses), this proven text is a must-have resource for career success.
