About the Book

The book is structured for anyone working in the failure analysis industry. The material is particularly designed for individuals that encounter electrical systems in the process of incident investigations. This includes engineers, technicians, investigators, insurance, legal, supervisors, and staff. There is enough technical information that any investigator will benefit from the material, illustrations, and explanations. The discussion is structured so that the material can also be used as an introduction to investigations. There are over 400 illustrations. The majority are photos of actual incidents we have investigated. Other photos are of events we have created in our research and are used as illustrations and aids. There are numerous diagrams to document the discussion.
