Electrician books can help your team improve their skills and meet important industry requirements and standards.
An electrician's education never really ends. As electrical systems become more sophisticated and complex, so must an electrician's knowledge of his or her chosen process. Full-time electricians may find it difficult to find time to study the latest techniques and technologies, especially if they have been out of school for a while and are unaware of which texts are currently considered industry standards. By guiding the electricians on your team to the resources below - or even purchasing the texts listed for them - you will be making a significant investment in their professional development, an investment that will pay off as their value to your company increases.
Speaking of basics, your electricians must continually ensure that their work meets code requirements on every project they undertake. However, doing so requires the electrician to check that code every once in a while. The latest edition of the National Electrical Code (published by the National Fire Protection Association) represents the latest and most comprehensive safety ensemble market guide, exhaustive in its coverage of the requirements for residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations. A team of experts reviewed each of these requirements to ensure that all of the information contained in this manual is as accurate and up-to-date as possible (a primary concern given the rapid changes in modern electrical systems). Even if your electrician claims to fully understand their guide, you'll still want to have a copy of this book somewhere in the store.
The first edition of Practical Electrical Wiring was written in 1939. Since then, industry experts have regarded it as the essential textbook for amateur and professional electricians alike. Now, in its 2014 edition, the industry-standard contains everything you need to know about using modern electrical wiring systems. At the same time, it retains a wealth of irreplaceable, essential information that is as true now as it was nearly eighty years ago.
What is the most remarkable feature of this book? It manages to convey that information in a more interesting and relevant way than most texts. The professional and down-to-earth tone makes the almost overwhelming knowledge provided in the book seem to be within the reader's grasp. From the professional electrician with years of experience to the beginner who knows absolutely nothing about solder, this book is still valuable. If you have an electrician with a formal education, chances are they have come across this book during their studies (and they are more likely to enjoy having access to the latest edition).
The basics of circuitry and wiring will only get you so far. Any competent electrician will need to put this knowledge to practical use, especially if they work for a field service company like yours.
If the electricians on your team need extra help to make the most of their knowledge, you can't go wrong by giving them a copy of the latest edition of Motor Control for Integrated Systems. After all, your customers don't want you to fix a faulty electronic component any more than they want you to fix the machine or system that the component belongs to. By studying this book, your electricians will become familiar with the inner workings of modern motor control and integrated system technology. This information will provide an excellent reference for them when they must repair unfamiliar machines, expand their skill base, and allow you to entertain a wider variety of customers.
Who says electrical education has to be all about reading? In a hands-on field like electrical work, it helps a lot to see things. And, luckily, you have some great options on YouTube (all free!). Check out the following electrician channels:
As the owner of an on-site electrical service company, your goals may include seeing your business prosper in the years to come. What's the easiest way to do that? Make sure your electricians have the resources they need to grow with your company. Make sure their skills and education keep up with the ever-changing world of electronics. Keep these books in your office for your electricians to study at their leisure - you might even consider having a copy or two for each member of your team as a holiday gift.
