• Sommario/riassunto: A practical and highly popular guide for electrical contractors of small installations, now fully revised in accordance with the latest wiring regulations The book is a clearly written practical guide on how to design and complete a range of electrical installation projects in a competitive manner, while ensuring full compliance with the new Wiring Regulations (updated late 2008). The updated regulations introduced changes in terminology, such as 'basic' and 'fault protection', and also changed the regulation numbers. This new edition reflects these changes. It discusses new sections
