Basic Question: How many convenience outlets can you put on one 20 amp circuit? The guide doesn't have that very necessary practical info., so I am unimpressed

I like code check electrical book 2005 because it has only 30 pages
yet it has over 500 residential code article with picture excellent
residential code book good for studying for test . great picture
now the 2008 is not as good as 2005 because they took out 25 of the
best picture in the book. they took out motor calculation big issue
in electrical work. I use this in my residential classes , a
residential electrician is much different then commercial electrician
has to know over 500 residential code rules to pass their job.

Some good reference material (it is only 30 pages). Some of it references NEC which means you are lost unless you have code book available. The 4th edition is for the 2005 code. Good chart for conduit fill. Not sure how much the page on swimming pool lighting gets used.

I am not an electrician but as a licensed builder and home inspector I find the various Code Check's (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, etc) to be outstanding references, and the illustrations are a great help. Contrary to another rating comment, all the Code Checks I have do identify the particular code and year, either on the front cover or in the introduction. Anyone who pounds a nail or shops the electrical section at the local "big box" store should have copies of Code Check. Homeowners are notorious for saying (especially with electrical repairs) "Well that's the way my father taught me." Times and codes have changed and Code Check will keep you up to date and SAFE.

Excellent information. I also liked the hard cover pages to keep from getting damaged. Very easy to understand also.
