Delmar's Standard Textbook of Electricity

Delmar's Standard Textbook of Electricity, 7th Edition, authored by Stephen L. Herman and published by Cengage Learning, delivers core instruction in basic electrical theory. Designed for introductory courses, the text assumes no prior electrical knowledge from incoming students.

Initial modules introduce safety overview protocols, atomic structure, static electricity, magnetism, and resistors. The text then transitions into foundational calculations using electrical quantities and Ohm's law to establish working technical knowledge.

Rich visual content features schematics and illustrations guiding readers through basic electrical circuits, direct current and alternating current theory, meters, transformers, and motors. This 2020 textbook functions effectively for foundational classwork and practical field reference for working electricians.
