Electric Motor Control provides as a useful and effective tool for anyone who will install, monitor and/or maintain motor controls
With a highly practical approach, Electric Motor
Control begins by
introducing the simplest of equipment and then builds upon this
knowledge, step-by-step, enabling readers to learn how to draw and
interpret motor control schematic diagrams. Subsequent units provide
useful information on motor control components and how they are
connected to form complete control circuits. 416 pp.
Features:
- includes updated art work and schematic diagrams
- A New Unit 59 on Troubleshooting Techniques provides real-life tools for
readers
- step-by-step instructions are given on how to use the voltmeter, ammeter,
and ohmmeter when troubleshooting a control circuit
- A New Unit 11 includes coverage of Mercury bulb float switches. 2-color
text
