There is an amazing amount of useful and easily understandable information in this diminutive manual.

Customer Reviews Great for Building Code Exams and Beyond, October 24, 2002 Reviewer: Sam Young from Atlanta, Georgia USA I took SBCCI's Residential Electrical Inspector exam, which is based on International Resesidential Code (IRC) and National Electric Code (NEC). I passed the test quickly & efficiently. This checklist showed the difference between the 1999 and 2002 NEC. Unlike the other Code Check books, there was no cross reference to the IRC. This made things difficult for the test because I couldn't get to my references directly. The beauty of this checklist is that I was able to quickly discern differences between the old and new NEC code. This allowed me to review these areas in the IRC for differences. I'd recommend this checklist to any residential inspector because after the test, the IRC is not likely to apply in the USA for the electrical code--the NEC does. Code Check Electrical Is Not Up To Date With 96 OR 99 CODE, December 4, 1999 Reviewer: A reader from Seattle, WA What a disappointment! This is a well laid out book with great illustrations. However, despite its "1999" publishing date, it does not cover changes in the 1996 or 1999 National Electric Code. The book makes no claim that it is up to date but it certainly is implied. As a loose leaf publication, it seems all the publisher would have to do is supplement pages with current data.
