Workbook Electrical Motor Controls for Integrated Systems Workbook is designed to reinforce the concepts and provide system design activities for the material presented in Electrical Motor Controls for Integrated Systems. The Workbook contains both Tech-Cheks and Worksheets for each chapter.

Tech-Cheks provide a series of multiple choice questions that are based on each section of the textbook. Always study the assigned section or chapter of the textbook thoroughly before completing the Tech-Cheks. Applying Your Knowledge questions found on the Electrical Motor Controls for Integrated Systems Interactive DVD can be used as additional exercises.

Worksheets provide opportunities to apply the concepts and theories in the textbook to practical design problems. The workbook contains a Worksheet for every section of the textbook. See the table of contents for a complete listing.

A Certificate of Completion can be used to document instruction provided and activities completed in each section or chapter of the book.

The customizable certificate can be found on the Electrical Motor Controls for Integrated Systems Instructor’s Resource Guide Interactive DVD.
