Basic Home Wiring Illustrated (Sunset Book) Paperback – January 1, 1977

I’m no electrician, bought my first book several years ago and liked it so much I’ve bought a few more for friends. Simple easy to read, lots of pictures and diagrams.

I've had this book for many years and refer to it when I have a question. I bought this one as a gift for a friend. I wish it was still in print.

I had one several years ago, but I lent it out and never got it back. So I bought another to keep aroound for more complex wiring projects like 3 way switches, and the associated lighting, etc.Great book to pull out and refresh yourself before digging in to a project, if you don't do this for a living. Also has a section on trouble shooting shorts which can be helpful for small projects like an electrical toy, tool, lamps etc.

This book is a little dated but you can't beat how it explains basic home wiring. Start with this book if you want to pick up the basics.

Love that Joker.

This book has the best diagrams of wiring situations of any book I've ever seen, and I've seen, and used, a lot of different handyman books! The diagrams are very, very clear. Most of the wiring situations one needs are included, as well. Best wiring book bar none!

I lost my original copy (had it for years) and had to buy another one. This is clearly (simply) explained and contains lots of diagrams. I am a do-it-yourselfer and this has helped me on numerous occasions.

if this is the sunset basic home wiring book , this arrived with 14 missing pages,, I may have written a reviw to a different book earlier.
