Many engineering students find traditional textbooks intimidating in their pursuit of knowledge. This is often attributed to the extensive coverage of physics theory, the overwhelming abundance of math, and the lack of practical application of engineering principles, laws, and equations. In contrast, this text aims to provide a more accessible and engaging approach to electrical engineering concepts and principles.

After introducing the electrical engineering concepts and principles in a straightforward manner, supported by analogies drawn from everyday examples and other engineering disciplines, this text leads the reader into more complex and abstract content. For instance, power factor, a complex electrical engineering concept, is explored from various perspectives, aided by diagrams, illustrations, and examples that the reader can easily relate to.

Throughout this book, the reader will develop a clear and robust understanding of electrical engineering fundamentals, as well as a deeper comprehension of electrical engineering terms, concepts, principles, laws, analytical techniques, solution strategies, and computational techniques. The reader will also gain confidence in communicating with professional electrical engineers, controls engineers, and electricians on their wavelength.

Studying this book can be instrumental in developing the skills and preparation needed for success in the electrical engineering portion of various certification and licensure exams, including Fundamentals of Engineering (FE), Professional Engineering (PE), Certified Energy Manager (CEM), and many other trade certification tests. Moreover, this text can serve as a compact and simplified electrical engineering desk reference.

In addition to its educational value, this book provides a brief introduction to the National Electrical Code (NEC®), the Arc-Flash Code, and a better understanding of electric. By providing a comprehensive and accessible resource, this text aims to empower engineering students with the knowledge and tools they need to excel in their field.
