The book starts with explaining the three phase a.c. circuit analysis with balanced and unbalanced loads, concept of transmission, distribution and power system protection. The discussion of tariff and power factor improvement is also added in support. The book further explains single phase and three phase transformers. Then book provides the detailed discussion of d.c. generators and motors. The book also includes the discussion of three phase and single phase induction motors, synchronous generators, synchronous motors and other motors such as stepper motor, brushless d.c. motor and universal motor. The book covers the classification and basic requirements of a measuring instrument. Then the book explains the static and dynamic characteristics and types of errors in measuring instruments. The book provides in depth discussion of electronic multimeter and oscilloscope. The book teaches the details of various types of transducers like resistive, inductive, capacitive, thermoelectric, piezoelectric, photoelectric and Hall effect transducers. The book uses plain, simple and lucid language to explain each topic. Each chapter gives the conceptual knowledge about the topic dividing it in the various sections and subsections. Each chapter provides the detailed explanation of the topic, practical examples and variety of solved problems. The book explains the philosophy of the subject which makes the understanding of the concepts very clear and makes the subject more interesting.
