Us DOE Electrical Science Volume 4 of 4 1992

ABSTRACT
The Electrical Science Fundamentals Handbook was developed to assist nuclear facility
operating contractors provide operators, maintenance personnel, and the technical staff with
the necessary fundamentals training to ensure a basic understanding of electrical theory,
terminology, and application. The handbook includes information on alternating current (AC)
and direct current (DC) theory, circuits, motors, and generators; AC power and reactive
components; batteries; AC and DC voltage regulators; transformers; and electrical test
instruments and measuring devices. This information will provide personnel with a foundation
for understanding the basic operation of various types of DOE nuclear facility electrical
equipment.

The Department of Energy (DOE) Fundamentals Handbooks consist of ten academic
subjects, which include Mathematics; Classical Physics; Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, and
Fluid Flow; Instrumentation and Control; Electrical Science; Material Science; Mechanical
Science; Chemistry; Engineering Symbology, Prints, and Drawings; and Nuclear Physics and
Reactor Theory. The handbooks are provided as an aid to DOE nuclear facility contractors.
These handbooks were first published as Reactor Operator Fundamentals Manuals in
1985 for use by DOE category A reactors. The subject areas, subject matter content, and level
of detail of the Reactor Operator Fundamentals Manuals were determined from several sources.
DOE Category A reactor training managers determined which materials should be included, and
served as a primary reference in the initial development phase. Training guidelines from the
commercial nuclear power industry, results of job and task analyses, and independent input from
contractors and operations-oriented personnel were all considered and included to some degree
in developing the text material and learning objectives.

The DOE Fundamentals Handbooks represent the needs of various DOE nuclear
facilities' fundamental training requirements. To increase their applicability to nonreactor nuclear
facilities, the Reactor Operator Fundamentals Manual learning objectives were distributed to the
Nuclear Facility Training Coordination Program Steering Committee for review and comment.
To update their reactor-specific content, DOE Category A reactor training managers also
reviewed and commented on the content. On the basis of feedback from these sources,
information that applied to two or more DOE nuclear facilities was considered generic and was
included. The final draft of each of the handbooks was then reviewed by these two groups. This
approach has resulted in revised modular handbooks that contain sufficient detail such that each
facility may adjust the content to fit their specific needs.

Each handbook contains an abstract, a foreword, an overview, learning objectives, and
text material, and is divided into modules so that content and order may be modified by
individual DOE contractors to suit their specific training needs. Each subject area is supported
by a separate examination bank with an answer key.
