2008 Ugly's review,
By
This review is from: UGLY's Electrical References, 2008 Edition (Spiral-bound)
It has a lot of useful stuff it in and I prefer it over the Dr. Watts book because of the extra detail in in. The Dr Watts book is nice though because the pages are laminated but if they laminated this book it would be 3 inches thick. I am an electrician and would have to say that this book might be too complicated for some do it yourselfer electricians and I would probably recommend the Dr. Watts book. Otherwise, if your looking for a good detailed resource, this is it.

This review is from: UGLY's Electrical References, 2008 Edition (Spiral-bound)
This is one Ugly book!Sorry, I couldn't help myself. This is actually a good reference book if you want some very well written references for electrical basics. Ohm's, volts, etc... it's all in there. Symbols, terminology and examples are well laid out in laymans terminology and easy to understand. It doesn't get too wrapped up in complex math, and the math that is given is very easy to understand because it is spelled out and all variables are clearly identified. Kudos to the auhor for a very comprehensive primer.

This review is from: UGLY's Electrical References, 2008 Edition (Spiral-bound)
I got my first Ugly's book in 1987 and have been buying them for my Journeymen for the past 10 years. Small enough to keep in the glove box or tool bag. Just a great reference guide for anyone in the electrical trade.
