to the 2020 NEC!
Walking you
step by step through an industrial building, ELECTRICAL WIRING
INDUSTRIAL, 17th Edition, equips you with the basic knowledge and
skills you need to safely install wiring systems.
This text is written in easy-to-read language
and packed with vivid photographs and illustrations to help you
understand key concepts. It is also thoroughly updated to reflect
the
2020 National Electric Code, the standard for layout and
construction of electrical systems.
Written for industrial wiring courses at
two-year community and technical colleges, ELECTRICAL WIRING
INDUSTRIAL, Seventeenth Edition, walks learners step-by-step
through the basics of installing wiring systems in an industrial
building.
A
set of blueprints included with the text enables students to
apply chapter concepts to a realistic industrial building project as
they progress through the content and continue to build practical
skills.
This pairing of theory and application helps
students understand and meet requirements set forth by the National
Electric Code® (NEC®).
Now printed in vibrant full color, the
Seventeenth Edition is ideal for engaging today's visual learners,
with abundant drawings, schematics, and illustrations to help bring
key concepts to life and connect chapter material to real-life
applications. ELECTRICAL WIRING INDUSTRIAL, 17th
Edition, completes Cengage's NEC-based Electrical Wiring series,
which includes
ELECTRICAL WIRING RESIDENTIAL and
ELECTRICAL WIRING
COMMERCIAL. All books in this series have been thoroughly
updated to reflect the
2020 NEC, the industry standard for
layout and installation of electrical systems.
Features:
- With comprehensive
coverage of industrial wiring essentials, the text introduces
students to different types of three-phase services, including
wye, delta, wye with grounded neutral conductor, delta with B
phase ground, and delta high leg services.
- The text features a
full chapter devoted to basic motor controls and Programmable
Logic Controllers (PLC), providing detailed coverage of
these essential topics.
- Practical, integrated
coverage of relevant mathematical concepts makes it easier for
students to master important math skills they will need to
succeed on the job, without overwhelming them with needless
detail or complexity.
- Extremely practical
and focused on real-world applications, the chapter on motor
installation presents detailed instruction on how to size
conductors, overloads, short circuit protective devices, and
motor starters in a way readers can readily apply on the job.
NEW to this Edition:
- Now printed in full color, the
Seventeenth Edition of ELECTRICAL WIRING INDUSTRIAL has
strong visual appeal to engage today's learners, with
drawings, schematics, and illustrations throughout the text
to help students connect chapter material to real-life
applications.
- The author has added or expanded
coverage of key topics important for today's industry
professionals, including extended coverage of fuses, and new
information on system grounding, zigzag transformers,
transformer tap changers, and NEC requirements for
transformer installation.
- The Seventeenth Edition has
been thoroughly updated to reflect the
2020
National Electrical Code® (NEC®). With information on
relevant NEC standards integrated into step-by-step
procedures for selecting conductors for a particular
application, power factor correction, and installation of
motors and transformers, this text is a valuable resource
professionals may want to keep in their tool box.
- Detailed photographs, diagrams, and
illustrations throughout the text have been updated to
reflect current industry equipment and standards, helping to
clarify critical industrial electricity concepts while
preparing students to connect what they learn to real-world
professional applications.
- The new edition features a strong
emphasis on safety, with new “Safety Alerts” now featured in
the text to highlight the importance of safe professional
practices at all times.
Learning objectives now carefully align technical content to
end-of-chapter questions and problems, as well as all
supplemental assessments, providing a clear framework to
help instructors to plan coursework, assignments, and
assessments.
- The author has added or expanded
coverage of key topics important for today's industry
professionals, including extended coverage of fuses, and new
information on system grounding, zigzag transformers,
transformer tap changers, and NEC requirements for
transformer installation.
