Handbook of Electric Power Calculations

Preference :

The Handbook of Electric Power Calculations provides detailed step-by-step calculation
procedures commonly encountered in electrical engineering. The Handbook contains a
wide array of topics and each topic is written by an authority on the subject. The treatment
throughout the Handbook is practical with very little emphasis on theory.
Each of the 20 Sections follows this format:
• Clear statement of the problem.
• Step-by-step calculation procedure.
• Inclusion of suitable graphs and illustrations to clarify the procedure.
• Use of SI and USCS equivalents.

This relatively simple, yet comprehensive format adds greatly to the use of the Handbook
by the engineer or technician. Arithmetic and algebra are employed in the solution
of the majority of the problems. Each section contains a list of references or a bibliography
that is pertinent to the subject matter.
