‘Electrical Circuit Theory and Technology 4th Version’ gives protection for a variety of programs that include electrical ideas, circuit concept and know-how of their syllabuses, from introductory to diploma stage. New matters included on this version embody resistor building and color code, extra info on batteries, risks of fixed excessive present with insulation, loading impact of devices, earth level and causes of brief circuits, potentiometers and rheostats, and rectifier smoothing.

As well as, freely out there on the web site are 10 easy laboratory experiments which can be downloaded and edited. A free Web obtain of a pattern (over 700) of the 1000 additional issues contained within the e book is out there to tutors – see subsequent web page. Additionally, a free Web obtain of a PowerPoint presentation of all 1100 illustrations contained within the textual content is out there – see subsequent web page. The textual content is about out in 4 elements as follows:

 

Half 1, involving Chapters 1 to 12, accommodates ‘Primary Electrical Engineering Ideas’ which any scholar wishing to progress in electrical engineering would want to know. An introduction to models, electrical circuits, resistance variation, batteries and different sources of power, collection and parallel circuits, capacitors and capacitance, magnetic circuits, electromagnetism, electromagnetic induction, electrical measuring devices and measurements, semiconductor diodes and transistors are all included on this part.

Half 2, involving Chapters 13 to 22, accommodates ‘Electrical Ideas and Technology’ appropriate for Nationwide Certificates, Nationwide Diploma and Metropolis and Guilds programs in electrical and digital engineering. D.c. circuit concept, alternating voltages and currents, singlephase collection and parallel circuits, d.c. transients, operational amplifiers, three-phase programs, transformers, d.c. machines and three-phase induction motors are all included on this part.

Half 3, involving Chapters 23 to 45, accommodates ‘Superior Circuit Theory and Technology’ appropriate for Diploma, Basis Diploma, Greater Nationwide Certificates/Diploma and Metropolis & Guilds programs in electrical and digital/telecommunications engineering.

 

The 2 earlier sections of the e book will present a useful reference/revision for college students at this stage. Advanced numbers and their utility to collection and parallel networks, energy in a.c. circuits, a.c. bridges, collection and parallel resonance and Q-factor, community evaluation involving Kirchhoff’s legal guidelines, mesh and nodal evaluation, the superposition theorem, Thevenin’s and Norton’s ´ theorems, delta-star and star-delta transforms, most energy switch theorems and impedance matching, advanced waveforms, Fourier collection, harmonic evaluation, magnetic supplies, dielectrics and dielectric loss, area concept, attenuators, filter networks, magnetically coupled circuits, transmission line concept and transients and Laplace transforms are all included on this part.

Half 4 gives a brief, ‘Basic Reference’ for normal electrical portions – their symbols and models, the Greek alphabet, frequent prefixes and resistor color coding and ohmic values. Initially of every of the 45 chapters studying targets are listed. On the finish of every of the primary three elements of the textual content is a useful reference of the primary formulae used. It isn’t potential to amass an intensive understanding {of electrical} ideas, circuit concept and know-how with out working by way of a lot of numerical issues.

It is for that reason that Electrical Circuit Theory and Technology 4th Version accommodates some 800 detailed labored issues, along with over 1000 additional issues (with solutions), organized inside 177 workout routines that seem each few pages all through the textual content. Over 1100 line diagrams additional improve the understanding of the speculation.
