Delmar's Standard Textbook of Electricity, 7th Edition by Stephen L. Herman is the most comprehensive and widely adopted introductory electricity textbook available, published by Cengage Learning in January 2019. Rated 4.6 stars by over 534 reviewers, this text combines comprehensive coverage of basic electrical theory with practical how-to information to prepare students for real practice in the electrical trades.
This edition covers all aspects of basic electrical theory with no assumption of prior electrical knowledge, limiting math to basic algebra and trigonometry with step-by-step examples. Quality schematics and illustrations guide students through basic electrical circuits, DC and AC theory, and equipment such as meters, transformers, and motors. Numerous examples demonstrate how to complete the common tasks electricians perform daily, while succinct units cover one or two topics each to ensure clarity. New coverage of spike and surge protection and motor installation complies with the 2017 NEC. MindTap online resources are also available with interactive multimedia for customized, trackable learning.
Key topics include: electrical quantities and Ohm's Law, series and parallel circuits, DC and AC theory, capacitors and inductors, transformers, three-phase circuits, single-phase and three-phase motors, motor controls, grounding, the National Electrical Code (NEC), and electrical safety. An essential resource for students in electrician apprenticeship, electrical technology, and industrial maintenance programs preparing for the IBEW (International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers) journeyman and master electrician licensing examinations.
