Lineman’s and
Cableman’s Handbook, 12E
Thomas
Shoemaker
James Mack
The Only Comprehensive Guide to
Distribution and Transmission Line Technology
Completely revised to reflect the 2012 National Electrical Safety
Code (NESC), The Lineman's and Cableman's Handbook,
12th Edition, provides in-depth information on overhead and
underground distribution and transmission lines. The latest OSHA,
ANSI, and ASTM standards are emphasized throughout.
This authoritative resource presents basic
principles, equipment, standards, and safety regulations, allowing
electrical workers to avoid costly errors, diagnose and repair power
failures, and ensure optimum safety. A wealth of illustrations and
photographs make it easy to understand the material, and self-test
questions and exercises help reinforce key concepts.
First published in 1928, The Lineman's and Cableman's Handbook has
shown generations of line and cable workers how to construct,
operate, and maintain electrical transmission and distribution
lines, both overhead and underground.
