PREFACE
This book is designed for the core subject “Automotive Electrical
and Electronics” offered to the under graduate and post graduate
students of Automobile Engineering of various engineering colleges
and universities in India. My aim is to provide a broad understanding
of the many systems and component parts that constitute the vehicle
electrical and electronics in a detailed way. The book should also be
a valuable source of information and reference.
The book provides clear explanation of vehicle electrical and
electronic components and systems with unique illustrations, which
should be of value both to the students and to the experienced faculty
members. Each chapter takes the reader systematically through the
details of each component system. Key topics are emphasized and
are reinforced by numerous illustrations.
I hope that students and teachers enjoy reading this book and
that they find its contents informative and useful.

Fundamentals
of Electricity
The components of the automobile electrical system are of complicated
construction, but all of them are applications of the various actions made
possible by the flow of electricity. Before taking up the construction and
operation of these various electric components, the fundamentals of
electricity will first be reviewed.
ELECTRICITY
Electricity is a form of energy and is produced by the movement of
small atomic particles known as electrons. It can be easily transmitted or
converted to other forms, such as mechanical or heat energy. To transmit
electricity, conductors such as copper, steel, carbon or an electrolyte are
used. Insulators such as rubber, porcelain or bakelite are used to prevent
electrical leakage from conductors.
There are two kinds of electricity: static and dynamic. Dynamic
electricity can be further divided into direct current (DC) and alternating
current (AC).

Static Electricity
When a non-conductive substance such as a glass rod is rubbed with a
silk cloth, the surfaces of both the rod and the cloth become charged with
electricity, one positively and one negatively. Unless the two materials
touch, or are connected by a conductor, the electrical charge will remain in
the glass rod and silk cloth. Since it does not move, this type of electricity
is called static electricity.

Fig.1.1: Static electricity
In terms of free electron, static electricity refers to a state in which free
electrons are separated from their atoms and do not move about on the
surface of the substance.
Dynamic Electricity
Dynamic electricity refers to a state in which there is a flow of free electrons,
i.e. electrons that are separated from their atoms and moving about inside
the conductive substance.

ALTERNATING CURRENT
Fig.1.2: Dynamic electricity
When the free electrons are moving in a constant direction, the state
of dynamic electricity is called direction current (DC). When the direction
of motion and the size of the current vary periodically with time, the state
of dynamic electricity is called alternating current (AC).

Fundamentals of Electricity
ELEMENTS OF ELECTRICITY
The three elements of electricity are voltage, current and resistance.
Current
Electric current is a flow of electrons and is measured in amps, (short for
amperes). The amp is a measure of flow rate. In other words how much
electricity is flowing per second.

MOVING ELECTRONS
Fig.1.3: Current
1 amp = 6,240,000,000,000,000,000 electrons per second
In electronic circuits a current of one amp is quite large, so often
the milli-amp is used instead. A milli-amp (mA) is a thousandth of an
amp (A).

Fig.1.4: Voltage
Electricity does not flow through a wire unless it is pushed. There
has to be an electrical pressure and this pressure is called voltage and is
measured in volts. The symbol is V. It is also called electrical pressure, and
electromotive force (emf). This pressure can be provided by a battery, or it
can be produced by a generator.

Automotive Electrical and Electronics
The rate that the electrons pass around the circuit (i.e. the amount of
current) is dependent not only on the force (voltage) but also by how much
resistance there is in the circuit. Resistance is measured in ohms (W).
In the case of electricity, a same conductor will allow better current
flow when its diameter becomes larger due to less resistance. When it
becomes longer, its resistance increases so that the current gets weaker.
That is, the resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length
and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. Because in a car the
same 12V battery powers all circuits, the only way that current can vary is
by varying the resistance.
The conductor resistance normally changes with the temperature.
The resistances of metal conductors increase when the temperature rises,
but resistances of carbon and aqueous solutions decrease. The resistance
also varies with the conductor material. A good conductor will have small
resistance, whereas the resistance of insulating material will be enormous.

Fig.1.6: Ohm’s law
In 1827, George ohm introduced simple mathematical formula, which
relates voltage, current, and resistance. This formula is called ohm’s law.
Ohm’s law says voltage is equal to current times resistance. A force of 1V
is required to push a current of 1A through a resistance of 1Ω .
V=I×R
Where,
V = Voltage in volts
I = Current in amperes
R = Resistance in ohms
