Publisher's Synopsis
Electrical power systems includes power generation, electrical power transmission & distribution, control & power system protection, electrical switch-gear, power transformers, control & protection relays, transmission & distribution substations, and all switch yard equipment. All the very basic electrical engineering theories related to this field of technology are also included in this study site. This site is continually improving and in the near future we will add many other functionalities to this website to make it a complete solution for electrical technology. Please give your suggestions to help make the site better. This is a complete reference of electrical engineering and technology.Engineers involved in electrical system design must also consider safety and legal requirements. When it comes to powering a building, for example, many cities have strict electrical codes in place to protect residents from electrical dangers and fire. National and international organizations also produce standards governing the use of electricity to power everything from cars to televisions. These codes are designed to prevent fires, reduce the risk of electric shock, and protect users from injury or death. Electric Power Systems comprise the theory and methods for generation, transmission, distribution and consumption of electric energy. Important areas are, among others, power flows, power system dynamics, reliability, new power system components, power quality and analysis of the power market. Electric power has become increasingly important as a way of transmitting and transforming energy in industrial, military and transportation uses. Electric power systems are also at the heart of alternative energy systems, including wind and solar electric, geothermal and small scale hydroelectric generation. Owing to its lucid style and presentation of advanced topics, the book will be useful to postgraduate students as also to practising engineers.
