Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern world is so dependent on electricity that it is always around us, supporting and promoting every aspect of human life. The major attributes that make electricity the ideal source of power, for a wide variety of applications are: * Electricity is efficiently produced, transported and distributed * Electricity is easily converted into useful work, light or heat at the final destination * Electricity supply systems are very reliable and * Electricity is easily controlled. A well planned and carefully installed electrical system can be a pleasure to operate. These will reward us with many years of safe, efficient and reliable service. On the other hand a poorly designed, badly executed electrical system can be dangerous to human lives and property, unreliable and a never ending source of problems and extra expenses. Although safety is the primary objective of a good Electrical System Design, the information given in this book is not intended to be a substitute for the national or manufacturer's safety guidelines. This book presents a comprehensive coverage of Electrical Systems Design useful to the engineering degree students as well as practising engineers. A basic knowledge of electrical engineering is required to understand the concepts. Even though the current practice is to use software tools for every design process, this book provides the background information to help the users to understand how to use electricity efficiently, safely and economically.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Electrical Installation Practice covers all key aspects of industrial, commercial and domestic installations and draws on the expertise of a wide range of industrial experts. Chapters are devoted to topics such as wiring cables, mains and submains cables and distribution in buildings, as well as power supplies, transformers, switchgear, and electricity on construction sites. Standards and codes of practice, as well as safety, are also included. Since the Third Edition was published, there have been many developments in technology and standards. The revolution in electronic microtechnology has made it possible to introduce more complex technologies in protective equipment and control systems, and these have been addressed in the new edition. Developments in lighting design continue, and extra-low voltage luminaries for display and feature illumination are now dealt with, as is the important subject of security lighting. All chapters have been amended to take account of revisions to British and other standards, following the trend to harmonised European and international standards, and they also take account of the latest edition of the Wiring Regulations. This new edition will provide an invaluable reference for consulting engineers, electrical contractors and factory plant engineers.
