(Nehemiah) 1833 1928 Hawkins, Nehemiah Rogers, William Hawkins Electrical Guide v. 06 (of 10) Questions, Answers, & Illustrations, A progressive course of study for engineers, electricians, students and those desiring to acquire a working knowledge of electricity and its applications Produced by Richard Tonsing, Juliet Sutherland and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Hawkins Electrical Guide v. 06 (of 10)" by N. Hawkins is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This volume serves as a comprehensive tutorial aimed at engineers and electricians, focusing on alternating current motors and their applications, as well as the fundamentals of electricity. The guide includes classifications and principles related to synchronous and induction motors, transformers, converters, and rectifiers, making it a valuable resource for those looking to gain practical knowledge in electrical engineering. The opening of the guide introduces the concept of alternating current motors and highlights their essential role in power distribution systems. It outlines the need for various types of alternating current motors designed for specific industrial applications, detailing classifications based on operational principles and current types, which set the stage for a deeper exploration into the mechanics involved. The early chapters present a structured approach to understanding synchronous motors and their operation, where emphasis is placed on the concept of synchronism – crucial for effective motor performance. The explanations are enriched with diagrams to support readers' comprehension of complex concepts such as torque, current, and motor mechanics.
