First published in 2009. Comprehensive in scope this book now in its fully updated second edition takes an applications-oriented approach to electrical distribution systems. All critical aspects of power production distribution control conversion and measurement are presented. The authors place emphasis on real-world applications examining electrical distribution and associated system operation from a user's or technician's point of view. The use of an ‘electrical power systems' model facilitates the reader's comprehensive understanding of electrical distribution utilizing power distribution as a key starting point and then applying that relationship to other important associated systems. The final chapter of this new edition is re-focused to emphasize the economics of distribution systems computer power requirements and current environmental considerations. The book provides a valuable desk reference for the working engineer contractor or technician who needs a thorough application-based guide for finding the best solutions to today's electrical distribution challenges.
