    Besides the books

    mentioned from Carol Fey I like the KLS book Gas Fitters guide to electrical schematics, has a good basic elect. format 1-800-388-5348 in Lewiston NY. I'm not sure if it's still in print. When I teach the topic I always start out with the statement "There's nothing basic about basic electricity" The more hands on examples the better, anything they already know and use helps. Good luck.
