Preface Looking back over the past twelve editions of the text, it is interesting to find that the average time period between editions is about 3.5 years. This thirteenth edition, however, will have 5 years between copyright dates clearly indicating a need to update and carefully review the content. Since the last edition, tabs have been placed on pages that need reflection, updating, or expansion. The result is that my copy of the text looks more like a dust mop than a text on technical material. The benefits of such an approach become immediately obvious—no need to look for areas that need attention—they are well-defined. In total, I have an opportunity to concentrate on being creative rather than searching for areas to improve. A simple rereading of material that I have not reviewed for a few years will often identify presentations that need to be improved. Something I felt was in its best form a few years ago can often benefit from rewriting, expansion, or possible reduction. Such opportunities must be balanced against the current scope of the text, which clearly has reached a maximum both in size and weight. Any additional material requires a reduction in content in other areas, so the process can often be a difficult one. However, I am pleased to reveal that the page count has expanded only slightly although an important array of new material has been added. New to this edition In this new edition some of the updated areas include the improved efficiency level of solar panels, the growing use of fuel cells in applications including the home, automobile, and a variety of portable systems, the introduction of smart meters throughout the residential and industrial world, the use of lumens to define lighting needs, the growing use of LEDs versus fluorescent CFLs and incandescent lamps, the growing use of inverters and converters in every phase of our everyday lives, and a variety of charts, graphs, and tables. There are some 300 new art pieces in the text, 27 new photographs, and well over 100 inserts of new material throughout the text. Perhaps the most notable change in this edition is the removal of Chapter 26 on System Analysis and the breaking up of Chapter 15, Series and Parallel ac Networks, into two chapters. In recent years, current users, reviewers, friends, and associates made it clear that the content of Chapter 26 was seldom covered in the typical associate or undergraduate program. If included in the syllabus, the coverage was limited to a few major s­ ections of the chapter.
