Delmar's Standard Textbook of Electricity, 7th Edition by Stephen L. Herman is the comprehensive, industry-standard electrical theory textbook used in electrical training programs and vocational schools across North America. Combining thorough coverage of fundamental electrical theory with practical, hands-on "how to" information, this Cengage Learning text prepares students for real-world electrical practice with no prior electrical knowledge assumed.
The 7th Edition covers all aspects of basic electrical theory, limiting mathematical content to basic algebra and trigonometry to ensure accessibility for all learners. Quality schematics and detailed illustrations guide students through basic electrical circuits, DC and AC theory, and essential electrical equipment including meters, transformers, and motors. Numerous worked examples demonstrate common electrician tasks, while focused unit coverage ensures clarity and retention of key concepts.
This edition includes new coverage of spike and surge protection and motor installation, with full alignment to the 2017 National Electrical Code (NEC). MindTap online resources are also available, providing interactive multimedia learning tools and instructor customization options to enhance and track student progress — making this an ideal choice for both classroom and self-directed electrical study.
Topics covered include: electrical theory fundamentals, Ohm's Law, DC and AC circuits, inductance and capacitance, transformers, motors and generators, test equipment, wiring methods, and electrical safety. The definitive textbook for apprentice electricians, vocational students, and anyone preparing for journeyman or master electrician licensure examinations.
