Synopsis

Explore the fundamentals of electrical engineering in clear, practical terms that fit a first-year course.

This book presents the subject on an easy, non-mathematical level with practical problems and typical demonstrations. It aims to help students and curious learners build a solid foundation before diving into deeper theory.

  • Covers core topics such as electrical pressure (voltage), current, resistance, and Ohm’s law, with practical problems and real-world examples.
  • Introduces units, measurement techniques, and the heating effect of current, plus the magnetic effects and magnetization of iron.
  • Describes indicating instruments, meters, and the measurement of potential difference, capacity, and permeability.
  • Includes chapters on arc and incandescent lamps, dynamos and motors, and the broader electrical supply systems used in industry and daily life.
Ideal for readers starting out in electrical engineering, or anyone seeking a solid, broad overview of the field and its practical applications.
