NEC 2008 Handbook
Customer Rating: 




This is not a book for the average do-it-yourself. It is, however, the Bible for professional and apprentice electricians, engineers, professional inspectors, and construction professionals who design, build, maintain, and approve residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural electrical systems.
If you are just looking to remodel your bathroom you don't need to buy this book---though you may want to refer to it. If you are making a living in the construction trades, then this book is an essential part of your toolbox.
not bad
Customer Rating: 




The explainations aid with the technical aspects of the code.
If you are not already in the trade, it won't be much help.
Definatley not for the "do-it-yourselfer" or for the "jack of all trades".
It may give someone pause enough to hire a professional rather than attempting to do the work themselves.
Not a bad thing when it comes to electric work.
