Electrical Conductors

Description

Not for beginners—this is the next level.

This book is specifically written for final-year apprentices, licensed electricians, contractors, designers, and inspectors who are ready to advance their understanding of electrical design and conductor applications.

While large-scale electrical design is often handled by engineers, real-world applications—from installing new equipment to correcting Code violations—frequently fall on the electrician. This book addresses that gap with practical, experience-based knowledge. You’ll learn how to approach conductor selection, motor protection, and real-life installations with confidence.

Chapters include:

• The Electrical Conductor

• Resistance

• Insulation

• Temperature Ratings of Devices

• Type of Load

• Motors

• Article 300 – Wiring Methods

Through these chapters, you’ll develop a deep understanding of how conductors behave under various conditions, how motors function and fail, and how to apply NEC principles effectively in the field.

Includes:

• 24 practice exams

• Over 300 exam questions with detailed answers

If you’re preparing for an exam, refining your field knowledge, or tackling more design responsibilities on the job—this book is an essential tool in your professional development.
