I want to understand more about the power grid in general and how electronic devices consume and create power.
I have a basic (UK A-Level) understanding of electricity, so I guess anything from basic university recommended texts or intermediate level books?
Sorry that this is so vague, it is an area I know little about and want to learn more.
I [asked on Twitter](https://twitter.com/tosbourn/status/645534272279977985) (RTs appreciated!) and got the following suggestion;
Practical Electronics for Inventors
Any more suggestions would be amazing, thanks in advance!
