This highly practical approach to a difficult topic makes Electric Motor Control 7th Edition an especially useful and effective tool for anyone who will install, monitor, and/or maintain motor control. The books begins by introducing the simplest of equipment and then builds upon this knowledge, step-by-step, enabling readers to learn how to draw and interpret motor control schematic diagrams. Subsequent units provide useful information on motor control components and how they are connected to form complete control circuits. One of the most reader-friendly, yet technically complete, introductions to modern motor theory and applications available anywhere, the book is particularly well suited for use in journeyman electrician training courses or self-study.
