Ugly's Electrical References has been the go-to pocket reference for electricians since 1970. This spiral-bound guide fits in your back pocket and contains everything you need on the job site - wire ampacities, conduit fill tables, motor calculations, NEC code references, and much more.

Like the Mims notebooks, this is another example of practical, no-nonsense reference material that gets the job done.
