About this product

A Textbook of Electrical Technology is to provide a comprehensive treatment of topics in "Basic Electrical Engineering" both for electrical as well as non electrical students pursuing their studies in civil, mechanical, mining, textile, chemical, industrial, environmental, aerospace, electronic and computer engineering both at the degrees and diploma level.

Following major additions/changes have been made in the present
edition :
1. Three new chapters entitled (a) A.C. Network Analysis (b) A.C.
Filter Networks and (c) Fourier Series have been added thereby
widening the scope of the book.
2. The chapter on Network Theorems has been updated with the
addition of Millman’s Theorem (as applicable to voltage and current
sources or both) and an article on Power Transfer Efficiency relating
to Maximum Power Transfer Theorem.
3. The additions to the chapter on Capacitors include detailed
articles on Transient Relations during Capacitor Charging and Discharging
Cycles and also the Charging and Discharging of a Capacitor with
Initial Charge.
4. Chapter on Chemical Effects of Current has been thoroughly
revised with the inclusion of Electronic Battery Chargers, Static
Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) Systems, High Temperature
Batteries, Secondary Hybrid Cells, Fuel Cells and Aircraft and Submarine
Batteries.
5. A detailed description of Thermocouple Ammeter has been
added to the chapter on Electrical Instruments.
6. The chapter on Series A.C. Circuits has been enriched with
many articles such as Determination of Upper and Lower Half-power
Frequencies, Value of Edge Frequencies and Relation between
Resonant Power and Off-resonance Power.
