Delmar's Standard Textbook of Electricity

Fifth Edition
Stephen L. Herman

Mastering the theory and application of electrical concepts is necessary for a successful career in the electrical installation or industrial maintenance fields, and this new fifth edition of DELMAR'S STANDARD TEXTBOOK OF ELECTRICITY delivers!

Designed to teach by blending concepts relating to electrical theory and principles with practical 'how to' information that prepares you for situations commonly encountered on the job.

Topics span all the major aspects of the electrical field including atomic structure and basic electricity, direct and alternating current, basic circuit theory, three-phase circuits, single phase, transformers, generators, and motors.

This revision retains all the hallmarks of our market-leading prior editions and includes enhancements such as updates to the 2011 NEC®, a new chapter on industry orientation, and new coverage of constant-current transformers and fuel cells as well as tips on energy efficiency throughout the text

Features:

Green Tips appear throughout text to demonstrate how to apply green concepts to the electrical field.
New chapter on "industry orientation."
New information concerning the American Wire Gauge measurement.
Extended coverage of how to determine resistance of conductors at different temperatures.
New coverage of constant-current transformers and fuel cells.
New homework lab solution option using CourseMate.
Comprehensive text organized so that each chapter covers a different topic, making it easy to comprehend as well as teach.
Extensive use of color illustrations and photographs appeals to visual learners and brings electrical theory and applications to life.
Covers a vast spectrum of electrical topics including three-phase power, both single-phase and three-phase transformers, and single-phase and three-phase motors.
