Recall of Electrical Wiring How-to-Books

On recent trip to the return counter at Home Depot I noticed on the Recall Bulletin Board: Faulty Instructions Prompt Recall of Electrical Wiring How-to-Books by The Taunton Press; Shock Hazard to Consumers. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Wiring a House, 3rd Edition, ISBN #978-1-56158-942-5 and Wiring Complete, Expert Advice from Start to Finish Instructional Books "contain several errors in the technical diagrams that could lead consumers to incorrectly install or repair electrical wiring, posing an electrical shock hazard to consumers."
