Electrical motor controls: Automated industrial systems 2nd Edition

very good teaching book , very good price

VERY GOOD TROUBLE SHOOTING FOR BEGINNERS

This book is informative, detailed and easy to follow. The text is well-written and straightforward, not hard to read or dry. Illustrations are simple and clear. It covers line diagrams and schematics, logic circuits, motor contactors and starters, AC and DC solenoids, single and three phase motors, distribution, solid state controls, electromechanical relays, photoelectric controls, PLCs, reduced voltage starters, accelerating and decelerating motors and PM/troubleshooting.

they tried to force me to buy this book. I won't. it has more than you'd ever need if your intent is to pull romex for the rest of your life, but woefully lacking in the plc department. good overall summary; not enough detail.
