AI Thread Summary
Several users recommend books for understanding electricity, including "Electronic Principles" by Malvino and "Electrical Principles for the Electrical Trades" by Jim Jenneson, which is popular among apprentices. "Circuits" by A. Bruce Carlson is noted for its readability and comprehensive coverage. Additionally, a book by Hayt and Kemmerly is suggested as a valuable resource. This discussion highlights various educational materials for learning about Ohm's laws, AC and DC circuits, and capacitors.

can anybody suggest me a book for knowing about electricity in detail (ohm's laws,AC ,DC Circuits,capacitors etc)
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
hiiiiiiii

I suggest u 2 refer 2 'Electronic principles' by Malvino.for further details contact me at vtwo@rediffmail.com.

Good book

Try...'Electrical Principles for the Electrical Trades' 5th Edition by Jim Jenneson.

This book is widely used for apprentices in the electrical trade
 
I suggest Circuits by A.Bruce Carlson
It is very easy to read and compreshensive and in-depth coverage.

Good call. I am after something similar so this thread has been useful for me too so thanks :smile:
 
Book by Hayt, Kemmerly is worth a look and is a nice book.
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
