Electric
Motors and Motor Controls
Second
Edition
Jeff Keljik
This book is designed for electrical
professionals and students who need to understand motor controls
from a practical perspective.
By first introducing basic controls, and then
progressing to more complex controls for various motors and various
applications, Electric Motors and Motor Controls, 2E provides
a strong foundational knowledge of motor theory.
Coverage includes the latest information on
modern controls, while still including older controls that are still
in use.
The National Electrical Code® is cited
throughout the book to acquaint readers with how to install and
maintain motor systems effectively and safely.
Features:
- Logically-sequenced topics, with each
chapter building on information learned in the chapter before
- Thorough coverage of why motors work and
why they may fail
- Comprehensive coverage of basic control
schemes and how they are created
- NEC® requirements in the most commonly-used
scenarios
- Applications of both new and traditional
controls and methods
