Summary
"Find all the information you need to minimize accident rates and ensure low-voltage system safety. Electrical Safety of Low-Voltage Systems offers you a comprehensive safety regimen, based on the fundamental characteristics of low-voltage electrical systems. Fully explaining the grounding and bonding of low-voltage systems as they relate to article 250 of the National Electrical Code, this essential safety tool provides an analytical approach to accident control to replace the haphazard rules of thumb currently in use.".
