Trust the Standard Handbook of Electrical Engineering, the one relied upon by electrical engineers for nearly a century
The Standard Handbook of Electrical Engineering has served the field of electrical engineering for nearly a century. Originally published in
1907, through 14 previous editions it has been a required resource for students
and professionals. This new 15th edition features new material focusing on power
generation and power systems operation – two longstanding strengths of the
handbook that have recently become front-burner technology issues. At the same
time, the entire format of the handbook has been streamlined, removing archaic
sections and providing a quick, easy look-up experience. 2000 pp.
