Understanding Motor Controls (3rd Edition)


File Size: 30.87 Mb

Description
Understanding Motor Controls assumes that the student has no knowledge of motor controls. The student is expected to have knowledge of basic Ohm's law and basic circuits, such as series, parallel, and combination. The book begins with an overview of safety. A discussion of schematics (ladder diagrams) and wiring diagrams is presented early. The discussion of schematics and wiring diagrams is intended to help students understand the written language of motor controls. Standard NEMA symbols are discussed and employed throughout the book when possible. The operation of common control devices is presented to help students understand how these components function and how they are used in motor control circuits. Basic control circuits are presented in a manner that allows students to begin with simple circuit concepts and progress to more complicated circuits.

The textbook contains examples of how a schematic or ladder diagram is converted into a wiring diagram. A basic numbering system is explained and employed to aid students in making this conversion. This is the most effective method I have found of teaching a student how to make the transition from a circuit drawn on paper to properly connecting components in the field.
