Electrical Studies for Trades is ideal for
current and future service technicians in fields such as air
conditioning and refrigeration, construction, and facilities management
who require practical knowledge of electricity. This book begins with an
overview of basic electricity concepts rather than introducing complex
mathematical calculations. From this starting point, readers proceed
directly to "must-know" information, including how to
determine wire sizes and make a variety of common switch connections.
Different types of electrical power panels are also examined in detail.
Discussion of general wiring practices and circuit protectors, as well
as an introduction to transformers and three-phase and single-phase
motors, rounds out the comprehensive coverage. 560 pp.
Features:
Provides completely up-to-date information on both motion and process
control to ensure that the entire spectrum of industrial control is
addressed
Examples that mirror the types of situations technicians face in the field
are used throughout to reinforce the practical, applied, approach to
electricity fundamentals
Measurement instruments commonly used in the field are identified and
explained to assist readers in using them and interpreting results
Stand-alone units allow readers to gain an overall understanding of
electricity "basics", while focusing their attention on topics
that relate to particular trades
