Reviews
Bob Henry has used his extensive experience and knowledge to address calculations for electrical engineering in industrial plants. He has shown the calculations for using an uninterruptible power supply to power large motors driven by a variable frequency drive which is the first time I have seen it addressed in a textbook. This is a unique application that having the calculations to size the units and show the operation will be very helpful in operating plants. - David E Nelson, Senior Electrical Engineer
