This Textbook supersedes the second edition of Fundamental
Electrical and Electronic Principles. In response to comments
from colleges requesting that the contents more closely match the
objectives of the BTEC unit Electrical and Electronic Principles,
some chapters have been removed and some exchanged with the
companion book Further Electrical and Electronic Principles, ISBN
9780750687478. Also, in order to encourage students to use other
reference sources, those chapters that have been totally removed
may be accessed on the website address http://books.elsevier.
com/companions/9780750687379. The previous edition included
Supplementary Worked Examples at the end of each chapter. The
majority of these have now been included within each chapter as
Worked Examples, and those that have been removed may be accessed
on the above website.
This book continues with the philosophy of the previous editions
in that it may be used as a complete set of course notes for students
undertaking the study of Electrical and Electronic Principles in the
? rst year of a BTEC National Diploma/Certi? cate course. It also
provides coverage for some other courses, including foundation/
bridging courses which require the study of Electric&al and Electronic
Engineering.
Fundamental Electrical and Electronic Principles contains 349
illustrations, 112 worked examples, 26 suggested practical assignments
and 234 assignment questions. The answers to the latter are to be found
towar&ds the end of the book.
The order of the chapters does not necessarily follow the order
set out in any syllabus, but rather follows a logical step-by-step
sequence through the subject matter. Some topic areas may extend
beyond current syllab&us requirements, but do so both for the sake of
completeness and to encourage those students wishing to extend their
knowledge.
Coverage of the second year BTEC National Diploma/Certi? cate
unit, Further Electrical Principles, is found in th&e third edition of the
companion book Further Electrical and Electronic Principles.
