The first User's Guide to the National Electrical Code(R) explains basic principles of the NEC(R)! NFPA's 2002 Edition details and explains the basic NEC principles you must know to work effectively with the world's most widely used building code! Written by H. Brooke Stauffer, Director of Codes & Standards at the National Electrical Contractor's Association, User's Guide to the National Electric Code is the ideal starting point for electrical apprentices, and a useful reference for experienced pros. Launch your career in the electrical field-or get the NEC background you've been missing! Learn how to find your way around the 2002 NEC through text explaining: What's covered in each chapter of the NEC. Use it alongside your 2002 Code!How the National Electrical Code works with other NFPA electrical standards and building codes The NEC consensus development process and the significance of TIAs and Formal Interpretations The User's Guide offers expert analyses of technical requirements-the kind of information it can take years to acquire: The difference between GFPE and GFCI equipment Why terminals for ungrounded hot conductors must be color-distinguishable from the silver or white usedfor grounded conductors Reasons to use a multiwire branch circuit. The NEC tells you how to install it-only the User's Guide tells you why. Find examples of TVSS (transient voltage surge suppressors) and hundreds of other explanations.

This is the foremost guide to hydraulically designing sprinkler systems for commercial and residential buildings. Sprinkler Hydraulics, Third Edition includes the latest developments in automatic sprinkler design, as well as going beyond the NFPA 13 Standard to explain everything needed to know to professionally design a system. Sprinkler Hydraulics, Third Edition explains flow phenomena to help the reader evaluate calculated sprinkler systems. Starting with a general discussion of the mathematics involved, the discussion proceeds to define sprinkler density, including several examples which explain how to determine discharge areas. • Includes the latest developments in automatic sprinkler design, as well as going beyond the NFPA 13 Standard to explain everything needed to know to professionally design a system; • Starting with a general discussion of the mathematics involved, the discussion proceeds to define sprinkler density, including several examples which explain how to determine discharge areas; • Explains flow phenomena to help the reader evaluate calculated sprinkler systems.
