Item ID: #848The Black & Decker Complete Guide to Home Wiring: Including Information on Home Electronics & Wireless Technology, Revised EditionProduct Information:
Item DescriptionEarlier editions of The Complete Guide to Home Wiring sold more than 500,000 copies, and this expanded new book includes all the tried-and-true projects from earlier editions, updated to feature the latest fixtures. The book now meets the requirements of the 2005 National Electrical Code, including important changes for bathroom, kitchen and utility area wiring. No book is more complete when it comes to traditional wiring, but this is only the beginning. One of the biggest challenges facing homeowners today is hooking up the many electronic components they own-computers and printers, home theaters and surround-sound systems, CD and DVD and DVR units, to name a few. Getting electronics to operate together correctly has its own dedicated chapter on how to solve this common source of frustration. Youll learn everything you need to know about home media connections, including how to create a high-definition home theater with surround-sound. And the newest wave in home wiring is to lose the wires altogether. Technologies with names such as “Bluetooth” and “wi-fi” are creating homes with fewer and fewer wires and greater and greater freedom of movement and communication. The final chapter in this book covers this exciting technology, and will show you how to integrate computers, printers, telephones, audio and video equipment, and more-all with no wires attached.

im taking an electrical course in NYC and this is for a NEC 2008, we are 3 years behind which means we use the NEC 2005… my question is should I buy or what… ita an intersting book but i dont want to follow and incorrect form in using the regulation of what NEC 2005 needs. I know there is a violation and its prohitied if an electrician in NYC follows the NEC 2008 what should I do???
The book has tons and tons of photos and explains things to the point that people with no previous knowledge should be able to understand.
This is no doubt a great reference book. This book shows you basic wiring techniques. It also has many, more in depth wiring techniques, that can be used in a new or used home. This book has great illustrations and diagrams which are very useful, even if you want to rewire your entire home. Although this book at is great at demonstrating basic wiring techniques, there is still some information left out. This book could, but is not required to, have more in depth wiring codes for 2009. This book does give you basic wiring procedures and codes, but does not list the full range of wiring codes for 2009. Non the less, this book is awesome. It will show you simple to complex wiring and does, literally, illustrate basic wiring diagrams for the most common wiring techniques. I rate this book 5/5, but a 2009 code book is also recommended to help facilitate all up to date wiring codes.
I strongly recommend this book to the beginner or anyone who who is interested in wiring procedures.
I have done quite a bit of home wiring and I still turn to this book. The newer versions talk more about home networks and stuff, which is nice!
