This book deals with principles and characteristics of the wide range of motor types likely to be useful in small engineering workshop applications. It also covers matters such as speed control, electric braking, generators, installation and safety aspects - everything, in fact, of practical value to the small workshop user. In the years since the publication of the first edition, the book has become a well-established reference source for users to dip into when more information is needed on how motors behave both in standard usage and also in less common applications. In this time a lot has happened in the field of motor design. This second edition now contains updated information covering both these later developments in motor types and their control systems. A major section is devoted to the characteristics and installation of Variable Frequency Drive units (VFDs). It also covers the operating differences between North American and European power systems.

Basics are essential
It is a fact of life that many an experienced electrician can forget the basics, especially when it comes to working mathematical theory and the like. Whilst this isn't an advanced book for those that like to indulge in the mysteries of physics, it is suffice to get one out of trouble, or help him brush up on forgotten basics. For those who ignore the basics, life can become very difficult, especially when in the field with nobody to turn to. I found this book useful enough to keep on the shelf and within arm's reach.

Good book. Very practical discussion of motors
Good book. Very practical discussion of motors. Only downside is it's British so it assumes the line voltage is 230VAC. All the books in this Workshop Practice are worth reading.

Wonderful Book
This is about the easiest book you will find to read on electric motors and devices such as rotary phase converters, static phase converters, and variable frequency drives. If you have a 3-phase motor and a single (split-phase) power to your house, read this and discover your options.
