There are details on electrical floor plans, lighting layouts, and schematics showing single line and block or power-riser diagrams for wiring circuits. 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 use an engineer's scale for developing and reading site plans, and how to make up and use panel board, connected-load, and other schedules.
