Alternating Current Fundamentals
Furnishes the Readers with the Most Comprehensive Information on AC
Current Essentials
Seventh Edition
Author: Stephen L. Herman
An industrial standard for more than
30 years.
Alternating
Current Fundamentals has been updated once again to furnish
readers with the most comprehensive information available on AC
essentials.
Topics are
thoughtfully arranged to build knowledge, progressing from basic
principles such as the differences between peak, rms, and average
values to more complex coverage of circuits containing resistance,
inductance, and capacitance.
The 7th Edition of
Alternating Current Fundamentals features improved graphics
that assist readers in understanding such state-of-the-art concepts
as phase angle differences between voltage and current in an
alternating current circuit, apparent power versus true power, and
the power factor.
Features:
-
information on
capacitors, single-phase and three-phase transformers, and
single-phase and three phase motors makes this one of the most
comprehensive and cost-effective books on the market
-
enhanced examples
of basic AC circuits to give theoretical concepts a basis in
real-world applications
- applicable
chapters contain practice problems; as well as answers so that
readers can monitor their progress as they move through the book
