5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, well laid out and very informative!!, 23 Mar 2002
By Kingsley Starling "Konsultancy" (Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: "Which?" Book of Wiring and Lighting (Paperback)
I wanted as much information as possible to help with a complete rewire but thought I'd start with a book that gave me the basic information in an easy to read book. This book gave me both!! Clear diagrams, photographs and explanations is helping me through a complete rewire of the whole house including additional external circuits for my workshop. Everything i need to know before calling out the Electricity board to test and connect me up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good all round informative book for the layman, 2 April 2002
This review is from: "Which?" Book of Wiring and Lighting (Paperback)
I found the book to be very informative and easy to understand. It gave me the confidence to carry out some of my own wiring projects ie house to garage power connection, shaver socket in the bathroom and additional lighting.
The book is very well illustated and has a wealth of useful tips. Above all the book is upto date.
