Book Description
Beginning with atoms and electrons, and positive and negative charges, this amply-illustrated book explains, simply and clearly, what electricity is and how it is generated and distributed through the power grid to businesses and homes. It covers circuits, circuits boxes, short circuits, switches and plugs as used in homes, and touches on alternate sources of electricity such as hydroelectric, wind and solar. A number of interesting experiments and projects are included in the book.
