Title: Code Check: Electrical: A Guide to Wiring a Safe House by Redwood Kardon, Douglas Hansen, Michael Casey, Paddy Morrissey ISBN: 1-56158-550-5 Publisher: Taunton Press Pub. Date: 15 August, 2002 Format: Spiral-bound Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $16.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.5 (4 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Useful in spite of itself
Comment: If the purchaser actually needs to know the UBC reference numbers, they will need to do some searching, because all too often the Section number cited in the Code Check series isn't correct. I do not have a copy of the International Building Code so I can not judge how the actual references correspond to the citations listed here, but one wonders how the authors could get the UBC citations so wrong, so often.
Because the Code Check series cover residential applications of the Code quite well, I suggest it be used as a study aid for Code Students. Because the surface is designed to be erased many times without leaving ghosts, the student will need to make paper copies. If the sudent goes thru the lists, they should mark down the actual section references on the copy. When the student is finished, he or she will have a good idea of what the code requires for residences and how to use the UBC (or the California Building Code) to locate those requirements in the code.

Summary: Fantastic Information & Great Pictures
Comment: I love the format of this book, simple, easy and I love the playful nature of the illustrations. Never have codes been more easy to understand.
Rating: 4
Summary: Great for Building Code Exams and Beyond
Comment: 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.
