Wire It Right turns electrical wiring into a game. Drag panels, receptacles, switches, and motors onto the board, run color-coded conductors, and call the inspector to grade your work against real National Electrical Code rules. • Three trades: residential, commercial, and motor control • Three skill levels: apprentice (colors and connections), journeyman (wire sizing vs. the breaker), and master (equipment-ground sizing) • A career of levels with goals, stars, and unlocks — plus a free-play sandbox • Friendly, color-coded, cartoon components that make the code click Whether you're an apprentice studying for the trade or just curious how the wires behind your walls work, Wire It Right teaches by doing.
