Electrical Engineering Fundamentals: Essential Electrical Theory, Circuit Design, and Practical Applications

By: Whitmore, Callum

Ever stared at a wiring diagram and felt the gap between "I passed the class" and "I actually understand this"?

That gap is where most electrical education quietly fails people - and it's exactly what this book closes.

Electrical Engineering Fundamentals is a complete, sixteen-chapter progression through electrical theory, built the way the subject actually works: nothing introduced before its foundation is laid, nothing asserted without being derived, and nothing left as a black box. You start with the physical nature of electric charge and basic safety, and sixteen chapters later you're solving three-phase motor and power distribution problems - with every single step in between fully connected.

Inside, you'll work through: DC circuit analysis from Ohm's Law through network theorems - mesh analysis, nodal analysis, Th venin, Norton, and superpositionCapacitors, inductors, and the magnetism and electromagnetic induction that underlie transformers, motors, and generatorsA complete AC toolkit: phasors, impedance, reactance, and real/reactive/apparent powerTransformers, semiconductor devices (diodes, transistors, rectifiers, amplifiers), and three-phase motors, generators, and power distribution systemsEvery chapter follows the same disciplined structure: clear learning objectives, derivations that show their work, multiple fully-solved worked examples, practice problems with a boxed answer key, and a real-world case study that turns the math into an actual field-diagnostic skill. Safety is treated as foundational, not an afterthought - grounded throughout in OSHA and NFPA 70E practice.

By the last chapter, you're not just reviewing formulas. You're tracing a single, unbroken chain of reasoning from Chapter 1's electron to Chapter 16's power grid - the kind of understanding that holds up on an exam, on a job site, and in front of an inspector.

A full glossary, symbol list, index, and quick-reference appendices are included, so the book keeps working as a reference long after you've finished reading it.

Whether you're studying for a licensing exam, working toward a journeyman credential, or simply want electrical theory to finally make complete sense - start with Chapter 1.
