National Electrical Code 2005 by Natl Fire Protection Assn Staff (2004, Paperback)

If you are an Electrician or Code Enforcement Officer than simply put you need this book, consider it another tool. Many towns and villages are using older versions of the NEC thus the need for an outdated book. I highly recommend the quick tabs. Although somewhat time consuming to install they actually save time down the line by helping you find the correct article without fumbling around the index.

Don't guess, look it up and avoid violations and red tags. Don't rely on second hand information from other Electricians. Arm yourself for defending your work against psycho inspectors. If you are studying for your Master's or Journeyman's license this book is an invaluable reference.

Every Electrician should have one in their shop and one in every truck.
