Description
Electric Motors by Jim Cox provides a comprehensive guide to the principles and characteristics of various motor types, making it an essential resource for small engineering workshop applications. The book covers practical topics such as speed control, electric braking, generators, installation, and safety aspects. This second edition has been updated to reflect recent developments in motor design and their control systems. A significant section is dedicated to Variable Frequency Drive units (VFDs), while also explaining the operating differences between North American and European power systems. For those looking for detailed information on how motors behave in standard usage and less common applications, this book serves as a valuable reference source.
