| Written for both professional HVAC/R technicians and students, this new 2nd edition of Electricity, Electronics and Wiring Diagrams for HVAC/R covers all of the key concepts and service techniques for electricity and electronics applications. Everything from basic electrical wiring diagrams to modern electronic control systems is covered in a clear, nonmathematical, applied manner.
Some of the key features include:
- Helpful hints and common pitfalls that are based on the author's comprehensive experience in the field.
- Extensive use of real-world wiring diagrams to explain systems and to provide troubleshooting practice.
- Glossary of technical terms and jargon commonly used throughout the industry.
This book provides a comprehensive but simple presentation of electricity and electronics that technicians in the field of modern HVAC/R need to be successful. Published in two main sections, the first section covers basic electricity and basic electronics related to the needs of air conditioning refrigeration technicians, while the second section of the book covers practical circuits and systems.
Features:
- Up-to-date comprehensive coverage of wiring diagrams, basic electricity and electronics.
- Provides readers with the most modern HVAC/R theories and the use of electronics in control systems.
- End of chapter questions of basic electricity and electronics.
- Helps readers review material and self-test their knowledge and understanding of the topics.
- Instructors Manual (available separately) includes answers to end-of-chapter questions, final examinations with answers, suggested practical experiences, and diagramming experiences.
- Provides an extensively useful tool for the instructor to aid in teaching.
