Not sure if this is the right fit?
Consider Electrical Engineering by Clive Maxfield.
“This is a dense, wide-ranging desk reference that reads like stitched-together chapters on circuits, signals, power, and practical design tips. It's most useful as a quick-lookup resource and a reminder of rules of thumb when you already know the basics; expect compact explanations, diagrams, and lots of factual detail. Limitation: it can feel uneven—some topics are terse, others long—and it doesn't handhold beginners or include hands-on exercises. Best used on the job or while studying for targeted problems rather than as a linear textbook.”
