The Black & Decker Complete Guide to Home Wiring: Including Information on Home Electronics & Wireless Technology, Revised Edition Paperback – January 1, 2005

Bought for my nephew who thinks he wants to be an electrician. He likes it because he has zero electrical knowledge or experience. Easy for him to begin learning

Beware of danger great book

The book was full of good information and I doubt I would have been able to fix the wiring in my house without it - super handy to have.

The simplicity of the diagrams for several wiring issues and the color graphics are amazing. . I have done a decent amount of wiring of houses, shops etc. On the job training deal over many years.I recently helped my son wire his new large shop. We had one complex 4 way situation. This book nailed it. Love it.

This is a handy reference to have around for all those malfunctions that always come up eventually around your place. Over time it happens to everyone whether it's anything from a loose wire to a blown fuse or a burnt outlet. It's also handy to have around if you have to hire and electrician so you can be more sure if they're actually fixing the problem and if what they're telling you is correct for all the money you're paying. So this is a fine book to add to your basic knowledge of wiring for those reasons alone.

Nice book has been very helpful for wiring project

Hope most of the codes are still relevant almost 18 years later.

Highly recommended- it has high-quality photographs and wiring diagrams, and good clear instructions. It does not dig very deeply into theory, but it does give some in context. I was able to complete a number of home projects that ordinarily I would have hired an electrician for. As getting an electrician to even return a phone call around here is nearly impossible, let alone show up, I needed a good reliable howto manual, and this is it.The Rex Cauldwell book is a good companion for this book, for readers who want the advanced course.
