3.	Ugly's Electrical References, 2008, George V. Hart.

Reference #2 note: If you use the link provided, you will land on a Utah Administrative Code page that shows there are no current amendments to the NEC which means there is currently nothing to study or have printed to take into the exam. As of July 2010, most of these amendments will move to an entirely different area of the Administrative Code. We hope to have a new link at that time.

1.	Lineman's and Cableman's Handbook, 9th Edition, 2002, Thomas M. Shoemaker, James E. Mack.
