Electrical Principles Second Edition is intended to present the concepts of electricity to learners interested in the field of residential wiring. It assumes that the learner has no knowledge of electricity and presents the subject in a very practical, straightforward manner. The book begins with electrical safety and progresses through basic electrical theory; electrical quantities and Ohm’s Law; series, parallel, and combination circuits; measuring instruments; wire tables; magnetic induction; alternating current; transformers; and motors. All mathematical calculations are explained in step-by-step detail. This book is an excellent choice for anyone entering the electrical field.
Electrical Principles Second Edition is a blend of practical and theoretical. The text not only explains the different concepts relating to electrical theory, it also provides practical examples of how to do many of the common tasks the electrician must perform. It was the author’s intention to make this book one that an electrician would want to keep in his toolbox for a reference. Although the text covers many areas of both direct and alternating current theory, the math level has been kept to basic algebra and basic trigonometry.
The subject matter for Electrical Principles Second Edition has been divided into separate stand-alone chapters. Although the chapters have been divided in a logical progression, the stand-alone concept permits the information to be presented in almost any sequence the instructor desires. In addition, the student or electrician does not have to search the entire text to find information concerning a particular subject; it is located within a certain chapter.
