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.
"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math β Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
