OK, I'm going to try something different here and hopefully everyone will chip in.

I was meandering through my Favorites list and realized I had a lot of web sites saved that I think we all could use. So I'm posting some of them here for everyone's benefit. If anyone has any others they'd like to add, go right ahead. I will make no claim as to their usefulness to you, but FWIW, here they are:

On the Electrical side:
EC Mag

Conduit Bending

Glossary 1

Glossary 2

Electrical Slang and Terms

Voltage Drop Calculator

Three Phase

The Meter Guy

NEMA Straight Blade Conficurations

NEMA Locking Blade Configurations

One the Business side:
Business Statistics

Need to Fire an Employee?

Small Business Development Center
(along with this one, try googling "your state small business development center" to get your state's office web site.)

Retail Contractors Association , for those who wire stores 'n' such.

Now I know all of you have other web sites in your Fav's list, so post 'em here for everyone to use. Information is power!

Open the bookmarks html file in a new broswer window
Copy/paste the links you want to drop...

The links will copy/paste as mine have above w/o having to do any more work :smile:

NEC 2008 -- free web version -- you can't search, copy, or print -- but it's handy when your book isn't

NIOSH Electrocution Fatality Investigation Reports -- a treasure trove of information, not about what could or might go wrong, but what actually has gone wrong costing lives. Sad and enlightening.

NFPA 70 ROPs & ROCs -- "Why the heck don't they change that?!?" or "The inside of a raceway in a wet location is itself a wet location? Huh?!?" Your answer might be in the ROPs and ROCs. Charlie Brown's stomping grounds :smile:

NEMA Code Alerts -- State by state code info, including upcoming meetings, comment periods, etc.

UL Online Certifications Directory -- Where to go to see if your $500 ground rod is indeed listed or not.

I've never even clicked the "thread tools" until you brought it up.
Thanks!
