It is unquestionably the best book of its kind for either broad or more limited studies of electrical fundamentals. It is divided into 21 chapters and an extensive section of appendixes. Chapters cover safety, fundamental concepts of electricity, batteries, series direct-current circuits, network analysis of direct-current circuits, electrical conductors and wiring techniques, electromagnetism and magnetic circuits, introduction to alternating-current electricity, inductance, capacitance, inductive and capacitive reactance, fundamental alternating-current circuit theory, direct-current generators, direct current motor magnetic amplifiers, and synchros and servomechanisms. Appendixes acquaint lay readers with common terms, abbreviations, component color-code, full load currents of motors, and cable types; they also supply trig functions, square and square roots, basic formulas, and laws of exponents. Thus the reader is supplied with a complete basic coverage of all important aspects of electricity. And, drawing on its ample funds, the Navy was able to fill this text with dozens of illustrations so that the book becomes almost a multimedia teaching process. This is an excellent text for classroom use or for home study. Students will also find it a valuable supplement to courses in which theory is emphasized while little attention is paid to application; it will also supplement a course in which this situation is reversed. In addition, Basic Electricity serves the lay reader who simply wants a knowledge of fundamental concepts of electricity or wishes to study more advanced concepts and applications. 1969 edition. Review: "better than Ever" - I am a 76 year-old man who tries to maintain brain function by studying schollarly topics. DC electricity is the present obsession,so the knowledge can be applied to an entheusiasm for solar panels. I bought several texts to be able to benefit from different author's versions of how to solve the variety of math problems. I was never satisfied with any of them, so kept looking. On desertcart Books was listed an old US Navy Textbook, used by the entire Seventh Fleet, which included my ship, during the Korean war. Feeling good about the idea, I purchased it. The other texts, all partly read, now sit on a shelf. The Navy book, talks to your thinking like one man speaking to another, covers EVERY topic in such a thorough manner that I never have used any of the other resource books . . . which were all originally bought, one at a time to be the only text. The book speaks logic and reason to this old mind, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to be as good as the military Men and Woman who run our present day technology in the war zones. Review: Excellent book - Arrived quickly and in excellent condition. I already previously purchased the naval guide for mechanics and found it really easy to follow and full of really clear and useful information, so I looked around for one on electricity too and was very happy to see they had put one out for electricity. I was pleasantly surprised to find this guide is even more comprehensive. Highly recommend. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #409,747 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #22 in Electric Machinery & Motors #2,356 in Physics (Books) #16,701 in Textbooks (Special Features Stores) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 448 Reviews | ## Images ![Basic Electricity (Dover Books on Electrical Engineering) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/814Tbs-UaZL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "better than Ever" *by C***N on January 30, 2010* I am a 76 year-old man who tries to maintain brain function by studying schollarly topics.

I already previously purchased the naval guide for mechanics and found it really easy to follow and full of really clear and useful information, so I looked around for one on electricity too and was very happy to see they had put one out for electricity. I was pleasantly surprised to find this guide is even more comprehensive. Highly recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book *by M***P on February 15, 2019* Great book, really gets to what you need to know. Helps you understand the basics of electricity and the applications to it, very valuable. Much better than most college level books. Have a bachelors in engineering and this was better than any course book I read. ## Frequently Bought Together - Basic Electricity (Dover Books on Electrical Engineering) - Basic Electronics (Dover Books on Engineering) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.mx/products/1463962-basic-electricity-dover-books-on-electrical-engineering](https://www.desertcart.mx/products/1463962-basic-electricity-dover-books-on-electrical-engineering) --- *Product available on Desertcart Mexico* *Store origin: MX* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
