Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering

Technology has a major impact on the lives of people and the field of Electrical Engineering has its predominant role in our day to day life. The latest developments in the field of Electrical Engineering also help in faster technology innovations. Our life would be unthinkable without the use of electrical energy. Electrical engineers are at the forefront of some of today's most important innovations. Whether working for the private sector, government, or major research institutes, electrical engineers are always pushing the boundaries of the possible. Electrical lighting is indispensable for working during the dark hours of the day. With increasing industrialization, a growing proportion of electrical energy is used for the lighting of shops, offices, dwellings and for outdoor lighting. Man is relieved from heavy physical labor by the use of electrical devices. The drive of machines, hoisting gear and lifts is enabled in a simple form by the electromotor which in railway transport also has the advantage over internal combustion engines. There are many buildings where an air-conditioning system including heating, cooling and ventilation is installed for the operation of which electrical energy is required. Today's engineers must be able to communicate effectively within the interdisciplinary teams in which they work. Electrical, electronic and electromechanical systems are pervasive in all aspects of engineering design and analysis. This book entitled "Fundamentals Of Electrical Engineering" presents the comprehensive coverage on the fundamentals of electrical and electronic circuits, and of electronic and electromechanical systems using an approach that is designed to appeal to students from a variety of engineering disciplines as well as practitioners through applied examples and effective pedagogy. It is aimed to reflect the most modern trends and researches to exhibit the latest developments in the field of Electrical engineering. Exploring both theoretical and experimental work, the book focuses on worldwide contributions that are fundamental to the development of electrical power engineering and its applications.
