Transformer
Principles and ApplicationsBy:
Otto Taylor, Jim Overmyer, Ron Michaelis
In Partnership with NJATC
Transformer Principles and Applications provides a
comprehensive overview of transformer operation, maintenance,
installation, and troubleshooting.
This full-color textbook is
designed to develop basic competencies of electrical apprentices and
beginning learners.
It can be used in a classroom
setting, as a self-study text, or as a desktop reference book on
advanced wiring connections and applications. All safety and
personal protective equipment depicted is based on requirements
specified in National Fire Protection Association standard
NFPA 70E
It begins with a thorough discussion of
magnets, magnetism, electromagnetism, and how these apply to
transformer operation.
Subsequent chapters include the latest
information on how transformers are used to reduce harmful effects
of harmonics, and how reactors and isolation transformers are used
to improve the power quality available to electronic equipment. Many
different types of specialized transformers are explained.
A
CD-ROM is included
containing Quick Quizzes™, an illustrated glossary, a Transformer
Resources section, media clips, and reference material.
