 Preface
Many Non-engineering professionals as well as engineers who are not
electrical engineers tend to have a phobia related to electrical engineering.
One reason for this apprehensiveness about electrical engineering is due
to the fact that electrical engineering is premised concepts, methods and
mathematical techniques that are somewhat more abstract than those
employed in other disciplines, such as civil, mechanical, environmental
and industrial engineering. Yet, because of the prevalence and ubiquitous
nature of the electrical equipment, appliances, and the role electricity
plays in our daily lives, the non-electrical professionals find themselves
interfacing with systems and dealing with matters that broach into the
electrical realm. Therein lies the purpose and objective of this book.
This book is designed to serve as a resource for exploring and
understanding basic electrical engineering concepts, principles, analytical
strategies and mathematical strategies.
If your objective as a reader is limited to the acquisition of basic knowledge
in electrical engineering, then the material in this book should suffice.
If, however, the reader wishes to progress their electrical engineering
knowledge to intermediate or advanced level, this book could serve as a
useful platform.
As the adage goes, “a picture is worth a thousand words;” this book
maximizes the utilization of diagram, graphs, pictures and flow charts to
facilitate quick and effective comprehension of the concepts of electrical
engineering.
In this book, the study of electrical engineering concepts, principles
and analysis techniques is made relatively easy for the reader by inclusion
of most of the reference data, in form of excerpts from different parts
of the book, within the discussion of each case study, exercise and self-
assessment problem solutions. This is in an effort to facilitate quick study
and comprehension of the material without repetitive search for reference
data in other parts of the book.
Certain electrical engineering concepts and terms are explained more
than once as these concepts appear in different chapters of this text; often
with a slightly different perspective. This approach is a deliberate attempt
to make the study of some of the more abstract electrical engineering
topics more fluid; allowing the reader continuity, and precluding the need
for pausing and referring to chapters where those specific topics were
xiii
[Link]
first introduced.
Due to the level of explanation and detail included for most electrical
engineering concepts, principles, computational techniques and analyses
methods, this book is a tool for those energy engineers, engineers and non-
engineers, who are not current on the subject of electrical engineering.
The solutions for end of the chapter self-assessment problems are
explained in just as much detail as the case studies and sample problem in
the pertaining chapters. This approach has been adopted so that this book
can serve as a electrical engineering skill building resource for engineers
of all disciplines. Since all chapters and topics begin with the introduction
of important fundamental concepts and principles, this book can serve as
a “brush-up,” refresher or review tool for even electrical engineers whose
current area of engineering specialty does not afford them the opportunity
to keep their electrical engineering knowledge current.
In an effort to clarify some of the electrical engineering concepts
effectively for energy engineers whose engineering education focus
does not include electrical engineering, analogies are drawn from non-
electrical engineering realms, on certain complex topics, to facilitate
comprehension of the relatively abstract electrical engineering concepts
and principles.
Each chapter in this book concludes with a list of questions or
problems, for self-assessment, skill building and knowledge affirmation
purposes. The reader is encouraged to attempt these problems and
questions. The answers and solutions, for the questions and problems,
are included under Appendix A of this text.
Most engineers understand the role units play in definition and
verification of the engineering concepts, principles, equations, and
analytical techniques. Therefore, most electrical engineering concepts,
principles and computational procedures covered in this book are
punctuated with proper units. In addition, for the reader’s convenience,
units for commonly used electrical engineering entities, and some
conversion factors are listed under Appendix C.
Most electrical engineering concepts, principles, tables, graphs,
and computational procedures covered in this book are premised on SI/
Metric Units. However, US/Imperial Units are utilized where appropriate
and conventional. When the problems or numerical analysis are based
on only one of the two unit systems, the given data and the final results
can be transformed into the desired unit system through the use of unit
conversion factors in Appendix B.

engineering, are listed in Appendix C, for reference.

What Readers Can Gain from this Book

• Better understanding of electrical engineering terms, concepts,

principles, laws, analysis methods, solution strategies and compu-
tational techniques.

• Greater confidence in interactions with electrical engineering design

engineers, electricians, controls engineers and electrical engineering
experts.

• Certain skills and preparation necessary for succeeding in electrical

engineering portion of various certification and licensure exams, i.e.
CEM, Certified Energy Manager, FE, Fundamentals of Engineering
(also known as EIT, or Engineer in Training), PE, Professional Engi-
neering and many other trade certification tests.

• A better understanding of the electrical engineering component of

energy projects.

• A compact and simplified electrical engineering desk reference.

• Better understanding of electrical energy cost and tips on improve-

ment of electrical energy intensity in industrial and commercial
environment.

• Introduction to the generation of electricity from renewable sources.

• Better understanding of illumination principles and concepts, and

an appreciation of efficient lighting/illumination design

An epistemic advice to the reader: if you don’t understand some of

the abstract concepts the first time, don’t give up. Read it again! Such is
the nature, intrigue and challenge of engineering, physics, science and
other subjects that require thinking, reflection and rumination.
