The Guidebook for Linemen and Cablemen

Product Description

The Guidebook for Linemen and Cablemen is for people working or training to work on electrical utility circuits. This book was written to fill the need for a convenient single-volume reference source on the operation of an electrical-utility system. Existing sources of information tend to focus on very basic electricity and magnetism theory or on complex theory at an engineering level. This book deals with equipment and situations that powerline workers are exposed to in their daily work. This book covers electrical theory, procedures, as well as the mechanical aspects of the job, such as working with rigging, trucks, stringing wire, and tree felling.
