A Customer said I'm being generous. This book falls far short of the intended mark of teaching conduit bending and cable tray systems and its price is certainly way out of line. I was looking for a book that would be beneficial to give as a present to my apprentices as I train them and it will definitely not be this one. Part of the book looks like a parts catalog. I really don't care about knowing the specific part numbers and if I need one that I don't know off hand then I will look at a parts book. There are some beneficial points in this book but they are so basic t. Old Wrench said Waste of money. A waste of money! Starts a topic then leaves you dangling. Wish I could leave less than one star.. save your money this book is a joke.I am giving it one star because thats as low as I can go in the ratings
Now geared especially for students, this newly expanded manual remains the only complete treatment of the topic in the electrical field. Research tests throughout the book increase students' retention of the material. New sections cover the National Electrical Code, conduit bending machines, fiber optic conduits, and more.. The simple format includes detailed instructions, definitions of key terms, and many helpful charts and pictures--but no complicated trigonometry
