PREFACE
This book is primarily intended for a course in Basic Electrical Engineering. A strongneed was felt for such a book, which would address the needs of Indian Students hailingfrom different backgrounds across the country.
The book is written in two parts. Part A covers the important topics of circuit anal-ysis and basic instrumentation. Part B deals with the concepts of Electrical Machines.Part A has six chapters. Chapter 1 of Part A , introduces the student to the two fun-damental laws of Electrical Engineering which form the premise for all other topics,namely Ohm’s law and Kirchhoff’s laws. Chapter 2 deals with the fundamental conceptsin Electromagnetism—definitions of fundamental quantities, Biot-Savart’s law, Faraday’slaws, Self Inductance and mutual Inductance. Chapter 3 covers the various methods ofcircuit analysis—nodal analysis, mesh analysis, superposition theorem, Thevenin’s theo-rem, Norton’s theorem, maximum power transfer theorem, reciprocity theorem, star-deltatransformation—applied to simple dc circuits. Chapter 4 introduces the students to thefundamentals of ac circuits. Solution of simple series and parallel ac circuits is presented.Chapter 5 presents concepts of three phase circuits. Solution of balanced three phase starand delta connected networks is dealt with in this chapter. The chapter also discusses thevarious methods for measurement of three phase power. Chapter 6 exposes the studentto common electrical appliances and electrical engineering practices we come across inday to day life. The chapter covers the topics of methods of electrical wiring, choice ofcables, simple wiring schemes, working principle of fuses, principle of MCBs, earthingmethods, common lighting sources, estimation of energy requirement for simple loads,causes and prevention of electric shocks. Finally, chapter 7 covers basic concepts of elec-trical measurement. Moving coil and moving iron instruments , dynamometer wattmeterand energy meter are discussed in detail.
Part B is devoted to the treatment of Electrical Machines. Chapter1 presents the funda-mental concepts of electric machines. Chapter 2 deals with dc generators. The construction,principle of operation and derivation of induced emf are presented in detail. Chapter 3

viii Preface
deals with the operation, types and characteristics of dc motors. It also covers the impor-tant topics of testing and speed control of dc motors. Chapter 4 is devoted to transformers.The constructional features, operation, phasor diagram, testing, computation of efficiencyand regulation are discussed in detail. Chapter 5 deals with three phase induction motors,which are the most rugged and widely used in the industry. Chapter 6 presents threephase alternators. The construction, emf equation and different methods of regulationare covered in detail. Chapter 7 covers single phase induction motors. Chapter 8 givesthe experimental procedure for some of the common experiments conducted in electricalmachines laboratory.
All chapters are presented in a simple and lucid manner to facilitate an easy understand-ing of the subject. Important concepts are highlighted to emphasize the need to rememberthem. Every chapter contains a number of solved examples to strengthen the learning ofthe student and help the student, apply the concepts in various contexts. The examplespresented help the students to relate abstract concepts in Electrical Engineering to practi-cal applications which they see in their daily lives. Every chapter also gives a number ofquestions and unsolved problems for the student to work out. The book can be used as atext book for a course in Basic Electrical Engineering, a fundamental course in Electriccircuits and also for a basic course in Electrical Machines.
