Our fundamental alternating current (AC) theory book, now in its 2nd edition, gives all readers a user-friendly approach with practical examples to keep industry professionals up-to-date. This book is designed to give a thorough introduction to AC theory from its production, to its circuitry and uses. AC Theory, 2E uses the basics of direct current theory to explain the various aspects of AC theory. This book begins by covering the primary components of AC circuits, such as inductors, resistors, and capacitors. The chapters that follow build upon the basic principles learned in these chapters, gradually introducing increasingly complex topics such as parallel and combination circuits, applying AC principles in power generation and generators, and more. With updated sidebars that give a real-world context for the topics covered, users can develop strong connections between applications and theory while preparing them for work in the electrical field.
Features:
Coverage of ions, electrolytes molecules, and a variety of other principles gives readers a strong foundation for practical electrical work
Basic trigonometry and algebra are explained and used to provide the math skills needed to succeed in the field
Complete, easy-to-follow explanations give readers the ability to form strong connections between concepts and real-world practices
