Effectively introduce the basic principles of motor controls using clear, easy-to-understand language with Herman’s UNDERSTANDING MOTOR CONTROLS, 4E. This reader-friendly approach progresses from common motor control components to applications in control circuits. Thorough explanations and the latest illustrations depict basic types of meters and test equipment for troubleshooting control circuits. A series of hands-on laboratory experiments help readers apply concepts to actual motor control components. These student-friendly experiments start with very simple circuits before progressing to more complicated circuits that involve the use of timing relays and an auto-transformer starter.
