Newnes Electrical Engineers Handbook
. Warne
Chapter 1 Introduction
There seems to be a trend in the public perception of engineering and technology that to be able to operate a piece of equipment or a system is to understand how it works. Nothing could be further from the truth. The gap between the ability to operate and a genuine understanding is, if anything, widening because much of plexity added to modem electrical equipment has the specific aim of making it operable or ‘user-friendly’ without special training or knowledge. The need for a basic explanation of principles, leading to a simple description of
how various important mon classes of electrical equipment works , has never been stronger. Perhaps more so than in its predecessor, Newnes Electrical Pucker Book, an attempt is made to address fundamentals in this book, and the reader is encouraged to follow through any areas of interest using the references at the end of each chapter. prehensive coverage of all the subjects covered in this pocket book is available in the Newnes Electrical Engineer’s Reference Book. More so now than ever before, the specification and performance of electrical equipment is governed by national and international standards. While it would be inappropriate in a pocket book to cover standards in any detail, a summary of key standards is included for reference purposes at the end of each chapter.
