There are details on electrical floor plans, lighting layouts,

for wiring circuits. You'll learn how to lay out an electrical
project, what to look out for in dealing with construction specifications
and drawings especially in terms of today's technology, how to

Reading a blueprint is like reading
a road map. It tells you exactly what you're required to build.
Read it wrong and you'll build it wrong - and that can be expensive.
This book will teach you how to get the information you need
from the most complex electrical blueprints. Once you understand
how to follow the pathways and interpret the scale and symbols,
you can install the correct system the way the designer intended.
Keep this book as a handy reference. Once you've learned the
techniques it explains, you'll no longer face the bewilderment
and frustration of having to build from electrical blueprints
you can't read.
