Learn how motors are controlled, from the very first volt to a complete control circuit, with nothing taken for granted.


Motor Control and Electrical Fundamentals is a ground-up handbook for apprentice electricians, maintenance technicians, and anyone starting out in industrial motor control. It assumes no prior electrical training beyond basic arithmetic and simple algebra, and it builds your understanding one clear step at a time.


Inside, you will learn:



  • Electrical fundamentals: voltage, current, resistance, power, and Ohm's law

  • Alternating and three-phase power, and how to read electrical and ladder diagrams

  • How induction motors work, and how to read a motor nameplate

  • Contactors, relays, and motor starters, and how motor protection guards against overloads and short circuits

  • Control devices and sensors, and the circuits that start, stop, reverse, and sequence motors

  • Motor starting methods, an introduction to variable frequency drives and PLCs, and a systematic approach to troubleshooting


What makes this handbook different:



  • It starts from zero, with every symbol and term defined the first time it appears

  • More than 50 original diagrams drawn specifically for this book

  • Fully worked examples with every step shown, plus practice problems with complete solutions

  • A safety-first approach throughout, and a quick-reference section of the key formulas, symbols, and terms


This is an independent study aid and a foundation for further learning, not a replacement for hands-on training, your local electrical code, or qualified supervision. If you want to truly understand how motor control works, rather than just memorize it, start here.
