Electrical Studies for Trades, 5th edition

By Stephen Heman
The book begins with an overview of basic electrical concepts - rather than complex mathematical calculations. From here, you can proceed directly to the "information you should know" information, including how to determine wire sizes and create a variety of common adapter connections. Different types of electric power plates are also examined in detail. General Practice Discussion Wires and protective wires, as well as an introduction to three phase single phase transformers and motors, covering the overall coverage.
