James G. Stallcup

Stallcup’s® Generator, Transformer, Motor and Compressor, 2008 Edition has been fully revised to bring electrical personnel up-to-code on all types of rotating machinery. 

The new 2008 Edition expertly explains how to select, operate, construct, and maintain the most common types of rotating machinery correctly and efficiently.

Divided into three comprehensive parts, Stallcup’s® introduces users to:

• the theory, methods, and applications of generators (Part 1),
