This volume has been designed to cover the A1 and A2 stages of the Higher National Certificate in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. The contents correspond with much of the work in the Department of Education and Science outline syllabuses for HNC courses in England and Scotland and the text should also be useful for undergraduate CEI Part 1 and HND courses.

"Concise Higher Electrical Engineering" integrates, in one volume, the most important topics in Electrical Engineering at college or university level. The integrated nature of the book means that the Electrical Engineering student will not have to purchase multiple textbooks in order to cover the entire Electrical Engineering curriculum. The chapter on modelling or power systems compares manual examples with computerised methods. Other chapters in this book include electrical distribution design, illumination and electrical network protection. The chapter on industrial automation includes examples with real programmable controllers. "Concise Higher Electrical Engineering" includes a large number of examples and exercises. The book contains a wealth of illustration that aids the students understanding of the subject matter. The international contributors to this book are world-acclaimed experts in their fields. The authors bring to the book over 50 years of combined international industrial experience, ranging from railways and electricity supply to manufacturing.

Aimed at students studying electrical and electronic engineering, this book deals with the complex waveforms, magnetic and dielectric materials, and provides an introduction to transmission line theory.
