Sinopsis

Master electricity through hands‑on experiments and clear, practical explanations. This edition presents a laboratory‑led approach to electrical science, teaching core concepts by doing. It emphasizes learning by experiment, so students build real understanding as they work with ready‑made apparatus and guided measurements.

The book arranges topics to reflect how electricity is used in the real world. It starts with current, then moves to potential difference and resistance, building a practical framework that mirrors industry practice. It uses standard units and explains how these fit with the laws that govern electrical behavior, including Ohm’s law, to help beginners grasp the fundamentals.

- Hands‑on experiments aligned with lecture material, designed for efficient learning in a busy lab.
- Clear progression from basic quantities (current, voltage, resistance) to their interrelationships and practical measurement.
- A focus on using, interpreting, and converting results with standard, legal electrical units.
- Illustrative apparatus and setups described so students can reproduce key experiments on campus boards.

Ideal for readers seeking a practical, experiment‑based introduction to electricity, and for those pursuing first‑year electronics or engineering studies.

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from Practical Electricity: A Laboratory and Lecture Course

For example, it is not by studying geometrical optics, much less physical Optics, that an infant gradually learns to appreciate the distance of objects; and later on it is not by studying a treatise on struts, nor by listening to a course of lectures on structures, that the child finds out that the table has legs, hard legs, round legs. Feeling, looking, trying, in fact a simple course of experimental investigation, gives a child its knowledge; and this, there fore, I venture to think, is the method we should adopt when commencing the study of electricity.

Excerpt from Practical Electricity: A Laboratory and Lecture Course

Allowed to escape, and the liquid runs back out of the tube t. If this is done suddenly, however, there is a tendency for small particles of the liquid to be jerked out of the lower tube. To prevent these particles being thrown on to the stand of the apparatus, the tube is carried up, and its cord is bent over into the thistle funnel.
