Excerpt from Wiring Houses for the Electric Light: Together With Special References to Low Voltage Battery Systems A supply of electric current in the house for lighting, cooking, and for the operation of the laborsaving household appliances is no longer looked on as a luxury. Electricity in the house is a necessity. The wiring of the house therefore is a subject awakening vast interest and the second edition of this book has become necessary in order to keep abreast of the constantly arriving improvements in electrical work. Although many farms and isolated dwellings are installing low voltage plants of their own, operated by a gasoline engine, there exists no reason why the wiring itself should not be as safe as that required for the higher voltage of the Public Service lines. Therefore, the directions in the succeeding pages are devoted to first class work only, and that suitable for all ordinary household voltages. The rules of the National Board of Fire Underwriters have been freely consulted, an extensive digest with notes is given in a complete chapter of this edition. In addition to practically all the information contained in the former edition, there has been added thirty-two new pages on conduit wiring and concentric wiring and a number of full-page plates. Condulets and other fittings for conduit work have been described, together with BX armored cable and the handling of it.
