 The authors of the book are glad to welcome readers to the complex and interesting world of cabling for the data communications. Such cabling not only carries the data across the network but is also capable of carrying the voice, alarm signals, serial communications and audio/video transmissions.
Over the last decades, the IT world has begun to understand the significant importance of a good cabling system and this, in turn, caused some sort of explosion in the amount of registered installers of the structured cabling. It took about a year to write this book, including the time that was spent for researching and editing of the collected material, which includes feedbacks, tips and field experience provided by so many manufacturers, distributors and contractors.
The publication consists of three key parts, the first one being dedicated to the cabling technology and components, the second dealing with the network media and connectors, and the last chapter addressing the issues relating to the design and installation of the cabling. There are also some appendices, namely the dictionary of the terms, cabling resources, overview of the relevant standards etc. The Guide for proper identification of cable connectors and tools is also provided.
 Nice and quite rare publication, very useful for people dealing with the PLC programming.

The guide starts with the brief overview describing the very basics of the operation of the programmable logic controllers, the sensors and actuators, and all other equipment; this knowledge is considered pre-requisite for proper understanding of the rest of material...
 Here is the 2nd, revised and updated release of the popular publication, which continues to serve as one of the best available reference sources on all medium-voltage/low-voltage electrical power cables; it is cataloging all relevant technical characteristics of the cables and is therefore assuring the eventual success for the manufacture, correct choice, installation and operation plus, of course, subsequent technical maintenance of the electrical cables.
Some of the segments related to the insulation of the electrical cables and to the field assessment were revamped in order to make them reflect the latest transformations in the electrical industry; moreover, some completely new chapters were added, for example ones touching the location of the underground faults, thermal resistivity etc. The author of the book, William A. Thue, did pay so much of the attention to the historical perspective of electrical cables, and addressed the basic dielectric theory of electrical cables, major technical characteristics of electro-conductors and cables.
The electrical properties of various insulating materials and shielding of power cables, jackets, sheaths and armors have also been dealt with in this publication. Finally, the last part of this publication has been dedicated to the various relevant industry specifications and standards.
 For the past half-century or even more than that, the electrical energy has significantly diversified and got much broader. There are several new topic areas that range from light-wave technology to the microelectro-mechanics. The book has been prepared and released with the specific intention to keep pace with the industry progress mentioned above.
The technical info contained in this publication can hardly be found in any other publication, presented in a single volume. The opening chapter of the publication provides readers with quite a brief intro to the basic concepts that are relating to the electrical power system structure, just an overview, while the following two parts have been solely dedicated to the parameters of the multi-circuit transmission lines. Then, the steady state and transient presentations are discussed together with the modeling of the synchronous machines.
After that, the chapters come dealing with the power system component modeling and covering the modeling, performance and compensation of the transmission lines, presenting the coverage of the load flow solutions, covering balanced and unbalanced flow analysis, discussing upon the key concepts of power system stability types, AGC of interconnected and isolated electric power systems etc.
 Initially, from the very time of its preparation, this publication has been conceived as a revision of another one, also very practical and proven useful to the readers, namely Linear Network Analysis, which was published in 1965. Sometimes, when conducting the study of the electrical systems, is may become appropriate to specifically address to internal structure and the composition of the electrical system in question.
Then, the topology shall definitely be considered the critical analytical tool to use. However, it shall be noted that in most of the other cases the external characteristics analysis would be the one that presents interest. In this book the authors are mostly dealing with the internal composition and port, or system, characteristics. The most important mathematical tools are matrix analysis, complex variable functions, linear graphs etc. The good attempt was made in this book to a very careful development of the network theory fundamentals.
The authors also considered the frequency and time response, synthesis and analysis. Though most part of the book is limited to the linear and time-invariant electrical networks, one of the chapters have been specifically concerned with time-varying and non-linear networks.
 Below you may see the list of topics that have been covered by the authors of this publication - as you can see, the main emphasis was made by the authors on the various techniques and ways of measurement of following characteristics. The readers will get necessary technical information describing the electromagnetic variables measurement as well as the voltage and electric power measurement, understand the power factor and electric phase measurements and energy measurement.
The book sheds the light on the measurement of the electrical conductivity/resistivity and charge and also on the measurements of the electric capacitance and permittivity. The issues relating to the measurements of the electric and magnetic field strength, permeability and hysteresis, inductance and immittance, Q-factor, distortion, noise and microwave measurement have also been addressed together with the signal processing, filters and modulation matters, spectrum analysis/correlation, analog-to-digital converters, computer technology and telemetry, sensor networks/communication.
Among another important topics there are electromagnetic compatibility, various types of displays including LCD, plasma, cathode ray tube, light-emitting diode etc, reading and recording devices... Well-illustrated and useful source of technical information for electrical engineers.
