Covering the theory, application, and testing of contact materials,
Electrical Contacts: Principles and Applications, Second Edition
introduces a thorough discussion on making electric contact and
contact interface conduction; presents a general outline of, and
measurement techniques for, important corrosion mechanisms;
considers the results of contact wear when plug-in connections are
made and broken; investigates the effect of thin noble metal
plating on electronic connections; and relates crucial
considerations for making high- and low-power contact joints. It
examines contact use in switching devices, including the
interruption of AC and DC circuits with currents in the range 10mA
to 100kA and circuits up to 1000V, and describes arc formation
between open contacts and between opening contacts. Arcing effects
on contacts such as erosion, welding, and contamination are also
addressed. Containing nearly 3,000 references, tables, equations,
figures, drawings, and photographs, the book provides practical
examples encompassing everything from electronic circuits to high
power circuits, or microamperes to mega amperes. The new edition:
Reflects the latest advances in electrical contact science and
technology Examines current research on contact corrosion,
materials, and switching Includes updates and revisions in each
chapter, as well as up-to-date references and new figures and
examples throughout Delivers three new chapters on the effects of
dust contamination, electronic sensing for switching systems, and
contact phenomena for micro-electronic systems (MEMS) applications
With contributions from recognized experts in the field, Electrical
Contacts: Principles and Applications, Second Edition assists
practicing scientists and engineers in the prevention of costly
system failures, as well as offers a comprehensive introduction to
the subject for technology graduate students, by expanding their
knowledge of electrical contact phenomena.
