Needed for my fire alarms nicet exam and buying used saved me a ton of money. Glad I stumbled across this instead of spending a crazy amount for a new book.

I find it the spiral bound additions are much easier to work with than the hardcover or the paperback. If you want to make things a little easier, be sure to get the tabs for each section. National electrical code NEC 70 can't get a little confusing to navigate.

I have read many books in my life. I never had to give a bad review about bookThis book is the worst ever read. It is a huge waste of time counter productive to read this book. It refers you to one code, that one code refers you to another. that other jargon refers you to another.It is a complete waste of energy time and money.

This National Electrical Code (NEC) book was needed for both school and work. I have used it endlessly and it stays in great shape. I ordered the corresponding organization tabs and those were also very helpful! I believe it is a law that all electricians should keep a current code book on their vans. I keep it with me and use it frequently. They make a new one every 3 years so I will be ordering again soon! This will last you all 3 years because it is well made.It also works great with the corresponding color coded tabs. They will save you a lot of time and make it easier to find answers. The layout and the print is very easy to read and comprehend. It is easy to find your codes and solve a problem. I used this to take my two year electrician’s test and I passed with flying colors. The code book was necessary, but then combined with the color coded tabs, it made going through and finding the answers a breeze! I finished with time to spare. My co-workers have borrowed it as well and they really like how it’s laid out with the tabs. It just makes things much faster. If you get this book, definitely order the color tabs to go with, you won’t regret it. I don’t know what else to say, but for all you electricians, this is the code book you need to have for school and for work.

I always buy the latest NEC manual every three years for my profession. This time, I purchased the Kindle edition. I can access the NEC from a smart phone or computer when I need to look up something. Now I don't have to keep the printed copy with me all the time.It's a trade-off: It's easier to look up something in the printed version. But it's easier to "carry" it with you in your smart phone.The Kindle edition was the same price as the print edition. So no cost saving either way.

My state adopted the 2014 NEC as of January 1, 2014, so having an up to date code book was a must. A current code book is also now required to attend code seminars for my states mandatory continuing education credit. As is usually the case, there are a good number of changes for this code cycle, including both expanded AFCI and GFCI requirements, so there really is no way you can bid jobs and function effectively as a licensed electrician or electrical contractor without having a current NEC code book available for reference. It seems that prices for this book are exceptionally inflated from many sellers online and at the time I purchased it, the price here on Amazon was the best anywhere, so I was glad to find it at a reasonable price.

What can I say? It's the new NEC for 2014. It changes every 3 years with the updates for the requirements of electrical wiring. The item page has a very good description of what it contains so I won't go into it here. My husband was an electrical inspector for 20 years and has been an electrical contractor for just about that long. It's their bible for electrical work of any kind. Right now he is using it at the large project his company has been on for over 15 years and in the continuing ed class he's taking right now. He wouldn't be without it.
