Course Descriptions

Mathematics for Electricians will give your students the math skills they need to succeed in the electrical trade. It introduces them to the important math principles through problems designed for the electrical profession and offers them an excellent opportunity to develop and practice problem-solving skills while at the same time providing a valuable review of electrical terminology. This new edition uses the same straightforward writing style and simple, step-by-step explanations that made previous editions so reader friendly. It minimizes theory and emphasizes problem-solving techniques and practice problems. This new edition also includes updated illustrations and information for a better learning experience than ever before! The book begins with basic arithmetic and then, once these basic topics have been mastered, progresses to algebra and concludes with trigonometry. Practical problems with real-world scenarios from the electrical field are used throughout, allowing your students to apply key mathematical concepts while developing an awareness of basic electrical terms and practices. This is the perfect resource for students entering the electrical industry, or those simply looking to brush up on the necessary math.

Every electrical contractor needs to know how to estimate and bid to be successful in business. A great percentage of electrical work is acquired through the estimating process, and it is a skill that can make or break a career or a company. This textbook teaches the concepts behind making an accurate estimate, as well as the correct methods to arrive at correct final numbers for a winning bid. Although it does not cover the specifics of estimating industrial wiring, once you have learned the proper technique of estimating, you should have no problem estimating any job with which you have experience. In Mike's step-by-step guide you will learn about: Project Management Plans & Specifications Checklists the Take-off Determining Bill-of-Material Pricing and Laboring Adjusting Labor Units Determining Break-even Bid Cost Considerations Evaluating computer software-based estimating. 

Electrical Code/Print Reading has been completely updated to reflect changes in the 2020 NEC® and maintain its status as an industry standard by incorporating fundamental print reading skills and relevant NEC® topics.
