Summary: Mc Partland Handbook
Comment: One of the best books on the NEC. However I think figures should be better drawn. This would make the book more attractive to first time readers. One of the best things is that it explains the whys of many topics of the NEC.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Best handbook on the market
Comment: I have always found McPartland's handbook the only one worth having. The handbooks published by NFPA are in my opinion worthless because they are written for people with limited intelligence. The NFPA handbook really just states the obvious.
McPartland's book has always been good because he goes into the background to explain why the crazy things are in the NEC to begin with along with all of the nuances necessary for interpretations. When he retired from EC&M magazine that publication went down hill and I don't even read it anymore. Joe was the backbone of that pub. I've been in this business as an engineer since 1971. My first McPartland book was his 17th edition that covered the 1981 NEC.
