Dean's Electronics is a book written for amateur electricians in the 21st century. On the book's cover, there is the picture of a light bulb in a circle lying atop various electrical diagrams. People used this book for learning the field of electronics and repairing electrical equipment. These books are used in the Vault-Tec Vaults.

An image of this book is copied onto a slide for the Vault Dweller's Survival Guide. The identifying number is VDSG Plate #138-29.

On July 13, 2268, there is a notice by Stanley Armstrong, a Vault 101 maintenance technician, on the Cafeteria bulletin board requesting the return of his copy of Dean's Electronics.
