Hughes Electrical and Electronic Technology (Tenth Edition)
By Edward Hughes; Revised by John Hiley, Keith Brown, and Ian McKenzie Smith

The tenth edition of this best-selling text offers a clear and comprehensive introduction to electrical and electronic engineering, with balanced coverage of electrical, electronic, and power engineering. In this textbook, the fundamental principles of electrical technology are clearly and simply outlined and then used to introduce the application of electrical and electronic systems, with power systems also discussed fully. This revision has been updated to take into account key developments in the subject, including a new chapter on Electrical Energy Systems — exploring, among other topics, the principles of sustainable electricity generation. Hughes Electrical and Electronic Technology is considered a must-have text for university and college engineering students requiring a comprehensive introduction to the field, and is also appropriate as a reference for practitioners and technicians in this or any other engineering discipline. As one reviewer put it, this excellent book has become something of a legend over the years, regarded as one of the most popular and useful references on electrical and electronic technology. 

Topics commonly covered include:

• Fundamental electrical principles (circuits, DC theory)
• Electromagnetism and electromagnetic induction
• AC theory and single-phase/three-phase systems
• Electrical machines (DC and AC motors and generators)
