Electric
Motor Controls
Eighth Edition
Stephen L. Herman
With a highly practical approach, Electric
Motor Control, 8E provides a useful and effective tool for
anyone who will install, monitor, and/or maintain motor controls.
The book 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.
Features:
- Includes updated artwork and schematic
diagrams
- A new unit 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
- Updated content includes coverage of
Mercury bulb float switches
- Short, self-contained, 4-10 page units are
a key trademark feature of this book so that content can be easily
matched up with teacher and learner needs
