Second Edition
by Robert B. Hickey

The # 1 on-the-job Electrical Engineering Reference!

This new edition is necessitated by the new 2002 version of the National Electrical Code (NEC). This code changes render much of the existing material obsolete, so over half the chapters require heavy rewrites to stay current.

Electrical Engineer's Portable Handbook is a quick-look-up working tool, packed with tables, charts, and checklists, takes the guesswork out of almost any electrical design task or calculation.

This new Second Edition has been totally revised to reflect the 2002 National Electrical Code(R) and also includes new sections on telecommunications-structured cabling systems, dissipation array system technology for lightning protection, and blown optical fiber technology. With its well-illustrated, systematic framework and ready-to-use tools, no other reference delivers this much time-saving data in such a convenient, highly usable format.

Electrical Engineer's Portable Handbook contains information on:

• NEC Articles, Tables, and Data
• Service and Distribution
• Grounding and Ground Fault Protection
• Emergency and Standby Power Systems
• Lighting
• Special Systems
• Miscellaneous Special Applications

Electrical Engineer's Portable Handbook is indispensable for electrical engineers, designers, and technicians, providing immediate fingertip access to the fundamental information busy professionals need for everyday use in the field.
