Printreading has been updated to reflect changes in the NEC® and incorporates fundamental printreading skills and relevant NEC® topics. Prints used in industry are represented throughout the textbook, including plot plans, floor plans, and elevations. Prints and drawings are also used in conjunction with NEC® requirements to determine load calculations and to familiarize learners with standards that promote best practices. This textbook serves as both an instructional tool and a valuable technical reference for professionals in the field. This textbook now includes a full-size set of electrical prints for a distinctive residential building. A chapter discussing the prints in detail has been added to give the reader a thorough understanding of all the elements involved in a complex electrical system.
