Electric Motor Maintenance and Troubleshooting, 2nd Edition

I like it. I am still reading it ,but i like the way in which it is written. I wanted more information on motors due to college courses I am currently taking. I jumped past DC and went straight into AC 3 phase.This book is divided in three sections; theory, troubleshooting, and maintenance.It is a textbook with questions at the end of each chapter.

This book is a great addition to any tool box. We recently used it to identify 9 leads in a delta connected motor. With the method used here, we saved enough time (money) to cover the cost of the book!The format with the questions and answers page numbers at the end of each chapter would make it quite useful in the class room, too.Of course, the "safety tips" through out are useful to everyone.

I already have a visual understanding of the construction of motors as I work with them but this book is very good at explaining a lot of information about electric motors.

A disappointment. It desperately needs a glossary. Right from the beginning it uses technical jargon without definitions. I needed a dictionary along side the book to keep from getting lost. It got better as I got deeper into the book, but I still wouldn't call it good.

Trying to figure out how to us some discarded motors, this should help

A well written and easy to follow textbook on electric motor maintenance.

Great book.

This book has a lot of facts about electric motors,and I would suspect it would be a good reference book for those who already know the material and want to be able to look something up as a reference. However, I was hoping to learn something from the book, but its lack of explanation of why things work the way they do makes it pretty useless for me.

Good book

It's so handy and practical.

Perfect to learn electric motor theory

very good !!!

no issues.
