THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO POWER QUALITY--UPDATED AND EXPANDED

Electrical Power Systems Quality, Third Edition, is a complete, accessible, and up-to-date guide to identifying and preventing the causes of power quality problems. The information is presented without heavy-duty equations, making it practical and easily readable for utility engineers, industrial engineers, technicians, and equipment designers. This in-depth resource addresses the essentials of power quality and tested methods to improve compatibility among the power system, customer equipment, and processes.

Coverage includes:

• Standard terms and definitions for power quality phenomena
• Protecting against voltage sags and interruptions
• Harmonic phenomena and dealing with harmonic distortion
• Transient overvoltages
• Long-duration voltage variations
• Benchmarking power quality
• International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) standards
• Maintaining power quality in distributed generation systems
• Common wiring and grounding problems, along with solutions
• Site surveys and power quality monitoring

About the Author:

Mark F. McGranaghan (Knoxville, TN) is Vice President of the Power Delivery and Utilization Sector for the Electric Power Research Institute. He has BSEE and MSEE degrees from the University of Toledo and an MBA from the University of Pittsburgh. He was vice chairman of the IEEE SCC 22 Power Quality Standards Coordinating Committee and a technical advisor for the IEC SC77A (International Power Quality Standards). He has taught seminars and workshops around the world had has worked with electric utilities and end users to solve power quality problems.

Dr. Surya Santoso (Austin, TX) is an Associate Professor at the University of Texas. He earned MSE and PhD degrees from the University of Texas at Austin in electrical engineering. Dr. Santoso's research interests are in electric power quality and wind power systems. His most significant contributions are in pioneering and advancing the engineering science of root-cause analysis of electric power quality disturbance phenomena, education of electric power quality, and in the time-domain modeling and simulation of electromagnetic transients and wind power systems for integration studies. While working in the industry, he was a principal investigator for over twenty industrial and utility studies in power quality and wind power integration. His research in academia has been supported by EPRO, TVA, ONR, NSF, NREL, Electrotek, and Manitoba HVDC Research Center.
