Computer Aided Electrical Drawing

Intended as a text for the undergraduate students of electrical engineering, it emphasises on design concept and drawing electrical apparatus based on design approach. To stay at par with the present day technology, AutoCAD® 2014 is used in this book to draw electrical apparatus. It gives a comprehensive view of winding diagrams of different machines, its types along with the assembling technique of various electrical machines and also the single line representations of the power system with various standard symbols. This book has been prepared to meet the needs of the students in a simpler manner. Every topic has been dealt carefully with necessary explanation and presentation of the material is lucid. This student-friendly text also covers those topics which are required by aspiring engineers in practical situations along with the present industrial requirements and standards. KEY FEATURES • Use of plenty of illustrations for explaining the concepts or the principles. • Inclusion of practical problems with their solutions. • Graded exercises and model questions at the end of each chapter.

This unique book combines coverage of both mechanical and electrical drafting. The book combines coverage of both basic mechanical/manual drafting techniques and electrical drafting techniques in a single volume. The book introduces AutoCAD Release 13 commands, both DOS and Windows, in the electrical/electronic portion of the book. It presents electronic component outlines, symbols, schematics and printed circuit board techniques. Every chapter includes exercises and projects. Appropriate for readers interested in Drafting, Electrical Drafting, Drawing and Sketching.

Using AutoCAD at an introductory level, this tutorial demonstrates the basic building blocks of mechanical and electrical drafting for electronics applications. Throughout the text, students develop the manufacturing drawings for a single project, using AutoCAD to design the printed circuit boards, layout schematic diagrams, and produce assembly drawings.

provides a better understanding of electrical engineering terms, concepts, principles, laws, analysis methods, solution strategies and computational techniques. includes a brief introduction to the NEC and the Arc Flash Codes. deals with electrical energy cost and tips on improvement of electrical energy intensity in industrial and commercial environment. discusses myriad battery options available in the market; their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities that lie ahead and potential threats, and how batteries compare with capacitors as energy storage devices.

This book is designed to serve as a resource for exploring and understanding basic electrical engineering concepts, principles, analytical and mathematical strategies that will aid the reader in progressing their electrical engineering knowledge to intermediate or advanced levels. 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 solution. This is done in an effort to facilitate quick study and comprehension of the material without repetitive search for reference data in other parts of the book. To this new edition the author has introduced a new chapter on batteries where the basic, yet important, facets of the battery and its sustainable and safe operation is covered. The reader will be shown the not-so-obvious charging and discharging performance characteristics of batteries that can be determining factors in the selection, application and optimal performance of batteries.
