Electrical
Principles and Practices, 4E
4th Edition
By: Glen A. Mazur, Peter A. Zurlis
Electrical Principles and Practices
is an introduction to electrical and electronic principles and
practices and their uses in residential, commercial, and industrial
applications.
This new edition has been reorganized to
provide coverage of key electrical concepts at the beginning of the
text. Other chapters have been expanded to include greater coverage
on personal protective equipment,
NFPA 70E, basic first aid, test instruments, printreading, and
programmable logic relays.
Expanded content includes the latest
information on NFPA 70E® arc blast
and arc flash requirements, portable generator sizing, power
optimization, utility power factor and peak demand penalty, load
shedding, power factor correction, smart grid and smart appliance
technology, and wireless speakers.
This new, full-color edition has been
completely redesigned and includes chapter introductions,
objectives, and reviews to aid in comprehension.
 The Illustrated Glossary provides a helpful
reference to key terms included in the text. Selected terms are
linked to illustrations, video clips, and animated graphics that
augment the definition provided. The Math Formulas provide formulas
for interactive calculation and application of Ohm’s Law, the Power
Formula, series circuits, parallel circuits, electric motor
operation, and RCL circuits.
The Reference Material button accesses links
to Internet sites that contain related electrical-product
manufacturer and reference information.

The workbook contains questions based on the
corresponding textbook chapter content, and the worksheets provide
an opportunity to solve real-world problems.
The review questions consist of true-false,
multiple choice, completion, identification, and calculation
questions based on the text and illustrations in the corresponding
chapter in the textbook. The worksheets provide an opportunity to
apply the concepts in each chapter of the textbook to practical
electrical circuit design and troubleshooting problems. .
