To the point and plain to understand, great for me as a technical designer. A more detailed book would have confused me and I would have put it down. This book is complete and provided me the initial knowledge to start my new job as an electrical cad operator/designer position. 2017June14 HVB

This book is packed with NEC reference for up to code standards. It comes with full 'E' size plan layouts of the floor plan, lighting plan with T-grid and one line diagram for power distribution. These plans are also available on a CD also included with the book. This book is designed and written for the purpose of a step by step walk through to designing the electrical outlets, lighting and machine equipment in this industrial/commercial building. Excellent source of information for electrical majors needing a project.

I'm a professional engineer but most of my experience is in the process control and automation industry. I had to perform an electrical and control systems design for a customer and this book helped me by providing logical steps to build a complete electrical design of a facility. It references NEC 2008, so along with it, you feel confident that your design will comply with NEC. It is simple, easy to follow. It covers all major areas of an electrical design and provides sample calculations, drawings, etc.

The information contained in this book is comprehensive yet easily understood. Presented in the form of a building project each chapter steps the student through the process of electrical design for a commercial/industrial building. The book is written is a way that both the future electrician and the engineer can both understand. The book comes with hardcopies of the building plans and .dxf files on the companion CD allowing the student the choice of either designing with pencil, computer or both. The project although very comprehensive can be tailored to specific class objectives.
I had the privilege of having Mr. Hauck as an instructor at a nearby community college and found his lectures, that closely follow the material in this book, were the best presented by any instructor there. I believe that I learned more from the two semesters with Mr. Hauck than I did with all the other classes that I took towards my degree in Electrical Technology.

It is a frustration. The samples are very basic and ideal only for the starters. I could write the same kind of book; I wish I could return it.
