Written by an Entertainment Technician Certification Program (ETCP) recognized trainer, this reference supports practicing electricians and technicians and provides new technicians with the assistance needed for a successful career in the entertainment industry.
Fully updated, the second edition contains new information on systems, protocols, regulations, and safety standards, both domestic and international.
