DEWALT
Lighting & Maintenance Professional Reference
By Paul Rosenberg
The Reference Guide
for
Commercial and Industrial
Maintenance
The DEWALT Lighting and
Maintenance Professional Reference is a two-part informational
guide.
Part one covers the design, selection and
installation requirements of lighting systems for residential,
commercial and industrial applications.
Part two contains valuable information regarding
electrical and general maintenance including critical electrical
safety issues. The DEWALT Lighting and
Maintenance Professional Reference has quickly become a necessary tool
for commercial and industrial maintenance personnel.
