      There are many books available that can help you learn basic electrical concepts and engineering. Here are a few suggestions:

          "Electricity Demystified" by Stan Gibilisco
          "Electrical Engineering 101" by Darren Ashby
          "The Basics of Electricity" by Van Valkenburgh, Nooger & Neville, Inc.
          "Electrical Engineering: Principles and Applications" by Allan R. Hambley
          "Getting Started in Electronics" by Forrest M. Mims III
      
      These books are designed to provide a general introduction to electrical concepts and engineering, and can help you to understand the basics of electricity and how it is used in various applications. They may also include examples, diagrams, and practical exercises to help you learn and apply the concepts in a hands-on way. I encourage you to read reviews and compare the content and approach of different books to determine which one is the best fit for your learning style and goals.
