Ty J. Krean said normally they spell things out nicely. I was looking forward to diagrams and basic. It is helpful, but not as helpful as I thought it would be for one of the "idiot" books, normally they spell things out nicely. I was looking forward to diagrams and basic explanation but it is mostly just paragraphs and paragraphs of what you should and shouldn't do.. "Waste of money" according to Amazon Customer. Don't buy this book. It contains little useful information and is poorly illustrated. I bought this book because I want add a new panel to my house and am considering doing most of the wiring myself. After reading the book, I still don't know how to wire light switches in different parts of a room to control the same light fixtures, how to wire 220V circuits, what type of wire to use for different amperages, etc. The wiring drawings are scanned drawings done . Not that helpful This book is clearly written for complete idiots. Not that helpful for a DIY type gal. It had none of the information I wanted to learn about electrical wiring, rewiring, testing circuits, remodeling, etc.
