So here's my take on Ugly's Electrical References. I've tested a bunch of reference apps for tradespeople and this one's pretty solid. The amount of info packed in here is really impressive - it's got everything an electrician would need, from code changes to wiring diagrams. The video tutorials are a nice touch too. The only downside is the interface can be a bit cluttered and overwhelming at first. But once you get the hang of it, it's a super useful tool to have on hand.

I’ve been using Ugly’s Electrical References for a couple months now. It’s basically an app that has all the key info electricians need, like code updates, wiring diagrams, and formulas. Pretty solid if you’re an electrician or work in the trades. And

There’s a ton of useful stuff packed in here – you can look up things like NEMA wiring configs, ampacity tables, and conduit bending guides. It even has video tutorials, which is cool. The app got an update for the 2023 NEC changes, so the info is always up-to-date.

Look, if you’re an electrician or do any kind of electrical work, you’ll probably find this app really handy. It’s not perfect – the UI can be a little clunky at times – but overall it does the job and is worth checking out.

Cheaper than the book and quicker to access calculations. No flipping pages, just tap and go.
