For Pros By Pros: Builder Tested / Code-Approved

Updated classic. Wiring a House: 5th Edition, is a must-have reference on home wiring – essential for homeowners, electricians, and apprentices. You'll find all the information is updated to the latest electrical code and contains significant revisions that impact residential work, including:

• Expanded AFCI and GFCI protection in homes
• New approaches to ensure the safety of photovoltaic (PV) electrical systems

Written in plain language. Author Rex Cauldwell shares his wealth of experience in a simple, straightforward manner. He covers all the basics from idiot-proof advice on how to keep track of your tools — cart them in bins in a little red wagon — to the highly technical aspects of wiring, and tried-and-true industry tips.

Current and accurate information. Wiring a House is a comprehensive guide written by a master electrician with over 37 years of experience. An indispensable reference for keeping pros up-to-date, it also provides apprentices and homeowners an accessible reference with the latest information:

For those who want to see some examples of what is in my book (both text and art), you can go to my home page listed above. I am a practicing master electrician...not a desk jockey. This is the way I wire a house. My book is easy to read and written for both the novice and the professional alike. For example, I've included not only how to wire a GFCI into a circuit but how you can be plugged into one and still be electrocuted. I've filled the book with service calls and stories of many years of work...and included things I've done wrong as well as right. I've gotten many phone calls from people all over the states who called just to thank me for writing this book. One fan called just to say me he has read it cover-to-cover twice because he found it so interesting. It's required reading for anyone wanting to know what wiring works and what doesn't.
