¶ U.S. GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE; 1949 Electrician's Mate 3 - Navy Training Courses NAVPERS 10548
Introduction by Kirt Blattenberger
In January of 1945, my father-in-law, Marlet Goodwin, enlisted in the Merchant Marines and spent two years working in the "belly of the beast" in the engine rooms of the ships on which he sailed. He recently passed on to me some of the training manuals that he received while in the Merchant Marines and later while in the Naval Reserves. Some of the information contained in those manuals are amazingly detailed - both for mechanical and electrical systems. Since the basics have not changed much over the past 70 years, I thought it might be useful to make some of the content available here.
Here is the "Electrician's Mate 3 - Navy Training Courses" (NAVPERS 10548) in its entirety (or will be eventually). It should provide one of the Internet's best resources for people seeking a basic electricity course - complete with examples worked out (links to quizzes at end of chapters).
Electrician's Mate
3 - Navy Training Courses PREFACE This book is written to aid the striker for Electrician's Mate 3 to qualify for advancement to that rate. The combination of this training course and practical experience will enable the striker to meet the official requirements for advancement to EM3. These requirements, as given in The Manual of Qualifications for Advancement in Rating (NavPers 18068), are reproduced in appendix II. This course is based on an elementary knowledge of electricity and mathematics. Therefore, before starting this course the striker should complete the two basic Navy Training Courses, Electricity, NavPers 10622, and Mathematics, NavPers 10620. The duties of an Electrician's Mate also require an elementary knowledge of machines, tools, and blueprints. Hence, while studying this course, the striker should review these additional basic Navy Training Courses-Basic Machines, NavPers 10624; Use of Tools, NavPers 10623; and Use of Blueprints, NavPers 10621. . This training course presents the basic phenomena of direct current necessary for an EM3 to perform his duties on direct current machinery. He should also have a similar back-ground on alternating current machinery. Such background he will find in the appropriate chapters of the Navy training course for Electrician's l.1ate 2c, NavPers 10103. As one of the NAVY TRAINING COURSES, this book represents the joint efforts of the Training Publications Section of the Bureau of Naval Personnel and of those Naval establishments specially cognizant of the technical aspects of Electrician's Mates' duties.

STUDY GUIDE
If you are in the Regular Navy, you will be striking for the general service rating (EM). To meet the qualifications for 3rd class in this rating (see column EM, appendix II) you will have to study all the chapters in this book. If you are a member of the Naval Reserve you will be striking for either the emergency rating as power electrician (EMP) or shop electrician (EMS). To meet the qualifications for EMS you have to study all the chapters of this book except chapter 11 (D. C. Controllers). For EMP3 rate you have to study all the chapters except chapter 10 (Maintenance of Direct Current Motors and Generators). However, to gain a well-rounded view of the duties of the general service rating, it is recommended that you also read the additional chapters 10 or 11, which do not pertain directly to your rating.

Public domain refers to works that are not protected by copyright and are publicly available. They may be used by anyone, anywhere, anytime without permission, license or royalty payment. A work may enter the public domain because the term of copyright protection has expired (see FAQ Section 2.1.6), because copyright has been abandoned, or in the U.S. because it is a U.S. Government work and there is no other statutory basis for the Government to restrict its access (see FAQ Section 3.1.5). A work is not in the public domain simply because it does not have a copyright notice. Additionally, the fact that a privately created work is, with permission, included in a U.S. Government work does not place the private work into the public domain. The user is responsible for determining whether a work is in the public domain. It is important to read the permissions and copyright notices on U.S. Government publications and Web sites. Many Government agencies follow the practice of providing notice for material that is copyrighted and not for those that are in the public domain.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The Internet was still largely an unknown entity at the time and not much was available in the form of WYSIWYG ...
