Looking for some reading material on the NFPA 70E. If I get just the NFPA 70E book is it worth having one of the supplememental handbooks that helps explain everything ? If so anybody have a favorite ?
I want to learn more about being safe, using the right PPE gear when needed, and properly labeling all our pieces of equipment.
Thanks
Mike
