EBOOK - Black & Decker - The complete guide to wiring - Full Edition (Black & Decker)
EBOOK - Hướng dẫn đầy đủ về dây cáp điện (Black & Decker) - 339 Trang.
For over 15 years, BLACK+DECKER The Complete Guide to Wiring has been the best-selling home wiring manual in North America. With this 8th edition, get the clearest, most up-to-date advice available.
As the most current wiring book on the market, you can be confident that your projects will meet national wiring codes. You’ll also spend more time on your project and less time scratching your head thanks to more than 800 clear color photos and over 40 diagrams that show you exactly what you need to know about home electrical service; all the most common circuits, all the most-needed techniques, all the most essential tools and materials. Chapters include:
Working Safely with Wiring
Wire, Cable & Conduit
Boxes & Panels
Switches (including wall switches and specialty switches)
Receptacles
Preliminary Work (planning your project, highlights of the National Electrical Code, and more)
Circuit Maps
Common Wiring Projects (whole-house surge arrestors, underfloor radiant heat systems, doorbells, backup power supply, and many more)
Repair Projects (light fixtures, ceiling fans, lamp sockets, plugs and cords, and more)
1. The available neutral at switch boxes. Some switch wiring methods require that the white wire be used (and labeled) as a hot wire. A single pole switch at the end of the circuit (a switch leg) is one example. Threeway and four-way switches are other examples.
New computer-controlled and timer switches need power to operate, which means that a neutral wire is required to complete the electrical circuit. To allow easier installation of these new switches, the new NEC requires an available neutral wire in many switch boxes. In most cases, you will just cap the neutral wire and leave it, looking a bit lonely, in the switch box. To provide this neutral wire, you’ll need another wire. You may need to substitute 3-wire cable where you formerly used 2-wire cable, or you may need to substitute 2 runs of 2-wire cable where you formerly used 3-wire cable. Our new wiring diagrams will show you how to do this. When it goes into effect, this change will apply only to new construction and expanded circuits.
2. AFCI protection for most circuits. Changes to the NEC earlier this century mandated AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection on all bedroom circuits. The new NEC expands this requirement to include most 15 and 20 amp, 120 volt, receptacle and lighting circuits. Exceptions include the kitchen and bathroom receptacle circuits and the garage and exterior receptacle circuits. AFCI circuit breakers are required in most cases. AFCI receptacles are available and may be allowed when it is impractical to install AFCI circuit breakers.
Adding an AFCI device may not be as easy as installing it. Some AFCI devices may not be compatible with shared neutral (multi-wire) branch circuits. Some AFCI devices may not be compatible with dimmers, especially solid-state dimmers. You may want to have an electrician help you when you install AFCI devices.
3. Garage receptacles may not feed other outlets. You may no longer tie into a receptacle in your garage to power anything outside of the garage, such as an outdoor security light. Also, you must provide a receptacle for every parking spot in the garage.
4. AFCI and GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection for new receptacles. When that old receptacle blows you may not replace it with a standard duplex receptacle, even if that’s what you had before.
If codes require AFCI or GFCI protection for the affected receptacle you need to provide it.
