Electrical Design of Commercial and Industrial Buildings

Electrical Design of Commercial and Industrial Buildings provides students with the foundational knowledge needed to accurately read, comprehend, and ultimately design their own detailed electrical plans. Taking an applied learning approach, this unique combination of text and resources provides your students with a deep understanding of electrical design and theory in clear terms before demonstrating how to apply these principles during the design process; highlighting how plans are conceptualized, designed, and compiled with common design criteria, symbols, electrical codes, and requirements. Theory and application are further merged as critical components of electrical design are presented throughout the text for students to apply to their own electrical design project. After completing the sample plans, students will feel confident reading electrical designs, as well as producing "as built" drawings for construction projects and document changes made to electrical systems or wiring during electrical maintenance procedures.
