World’s foremost electrical engineering “bible”.Still the
only single-volume guide to the entire field of electricity — its
manufacture, transmission, distribution, measurement, and use.
Standard Handbook for Electrical Engineers, 14th edition, edited by
Donald G. Fink and H. Wayne Beaty, packs the expertise of over 60
best-of-breed contributors.
Brimming with solutions to day-to-dayproblems in electrical system
design, operation and maintenance, this unmatched resource arms you with
fast-access data on:
- units and definitions
- standards
- communications
- properties of materials used in manufacturing electrical equipment
and components
- computer applications
- the economics of electrical systems
- wiring design for commercial and industrial buildings
- electrochemistry and electrometallurgy...and much, much
more
You also get up to speed on:
- High-voltage transmission systems
- Residential, commercial, and industrial power applications that
deliver more efficient motors, lighting and transportation
- Energy conservation and efficient energy use
- Alternate energy sources such as solar and geothermal power, and
energy storage systems
- Electric utility industry changes -- including competition — and how
they affect operations, maintenance, and engineering methods
- Technological changes in instrumentation, metering, generation
(especially nuclear and gas turbines), insulating materials, power
quality —and more!
