One of the books I have is "the complete guide to home wiring" by black and decker. Can you give me some of the mistakes, I haven't noticed them.
The main book I use is "Electrical Wiring: Residential" by Ray Mullin. However this book is expensive (around $100) and doesn't have the pretty pictures the black and decker book has (Its meant as a text book for students).

John,
Which book? The B&D book only mentions isolated grounds in passing. The picture the give seems to be correct from what I understand about them.
I haven't noticed anyting on ISO ground in Ray's book. Maybe I just haven't found it yet.
Thanks

Ok, so what is wrong with the B&D steps? Looks like what I've seen elsewhere for ISO outlets.
Now if you want to talk about whether or not ISO's do any good, thats a different story. For a single dedicated outlet on a deicated circiut, then no an ISO won't do much. Add the extra ground to an outlet in a chain of outlets, then maybe.
