The definitive guide to distribution and transmission line technology fully revised for the latest standards

Thoroughly updated to reflect the 2023 National Electrical Safety Code (R) (NESC (R)), this classic resource explains the principles and practices of electric transmission and distribution line construction, operation, and maintenance. You will get comprehensive coverage of the newest equipment, techniques, and procedures along with current OSHA, ANSI, and ASTM regulations. Detailed illustrations and photos make it easy to understand the material, and self-test questions and exercises reinforce key concepts.
