• This book is great for refreshing your memory on a formula or to get the right formula for making the correct bend on a piece of conduit. No matter how experienced one is, it's always nice to have a small reference item like this book. I know several Master Electricians who swear by UGLY'S.

  Extremely good reference book. It's small enough to carry in your shirt pocket, and full of those little items we need to refresh on regularly. I'm an electrical maintenance supervisor for an international company and everyone in my department has one. I also purchase them for our engineering staff.  

  - Reader in Bloomberg, PA

  
  I still have my first copy of UGLY'S (1978 edition), and have used it extensively throughout my years in the trade... I look forward to future years of work with your handy reference guide always at hand.

  UGLY'S is the best of its kind.  

  - Reader in Huntington, PA

   
  UGLY'S is the most resourceful adaptation of a condensed, electrical data book one could own.  

  - Reader in Rancho Cucamonga, CA

  
  I've read similar books and none compare with the quality, quantity, and understandability of the information.
