I guess my main concern is the house passing inspection when we sell it
a few years from now. Can somebody recommend a book or website that
will give me the info I need to keep my house up to code? Little bits
of info like "secure cable to the stud a distance of 8" from the
junction box" and other stuff that isn't common knowledge. The guys at
Home Depot recommend the 1-2-3 Wiring book, which looks good, and has a
ton of information (I'm going to pick that up this weekend). Any other
suggestions?
Your local library should have some good books about residential
wiring, read as many as you can.
Here's a good book:

Here's a good website:

I strongly recommend that you verify any advice that you get. The
above website can help you do that.
Keep in mind that your house is a candidate for a complete re-wire.
Expect the worst and hope for the best. While helpful, Code books are
not intended as instruction manuals. You have a lot to learn, good
luck.
