Items related to Practical Power System Protection
Synopsis
The power utilities industry is going through a period of massive re-organization worldwide. The delayering brought about by an attempt to reduce costs and therefore provide cheaper power to the consumer means that many non-specialist engineers and technicians are now responsible for the power protection systems.This book originated from a successful course initiated by the skills shortage and the pressure of the Occupational Health & Safety Act and Risk Management. It is a practical introduction to basic fundamentals of power system protection, e.g., safety measures to control the impact of large voltage surges, for example a bolt of lightning or a short circuit. It is not a theoretical text but is designed to demystify the subject in order to allow non-specialists to implement safely power protection systems.
