This sixth volume of Reed's Marine Engineering Series is based principally upon the Electrotechnology syllabuses for Class 1 and Class 2 Engineers. It is also suitable for Marine Engineering cadets studying the Electrical Engineering Principles unit of the BTEC programme.

The book follows the same pattern as the other volumes in this series which has proved so succesful ie emphasis on basic principles, extensive illustrations, worked examples included in the text, practice examples at the end of each chapter and finally, selections of Class 1 and Class 2 exam questions.

Fully worked step by step solutions to every problem are provided which will prove especially helpful to Engineers studying at sea.
