5.0 out of 5 stars Explains how things work in the real-world
I was looking all over for an explanation of a magnetic blowout. This book not only explained it in detail but had excellant drawings showing how it physically works. This book combines the theoretical with the practical. I am an electrical engineering technician at a Public Utility.
Published on November 3, 1999

1.0 out of 5 stars Outdated
This book is outdated for any electrical class. Do not buy if you are taking a motors class. Buy the fourth edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars Electrical Motor Controls, March 31, 2001
By A Customer
This book was offered as a text book at a local community college. I have used this book for a few years now. I am and electrical contractor and still refer to this book for troubleshooting. This book is perfect for self teaching and is in a format that is good for a journeyman to begginer.

4.0 out of 5 stars good enough, February 3, 2000
By 
captain tech school (minnehopeless, minnesota) - See all my reviews
they tried to force me to buy this book. I won't. it has more than you'd ever need if your intent is to pull romex for the rest of your life, but woefully lacking in the plc department. good overall summary; not enough detail.
