Synopsis

The increased use of power lines to interconnect multiple generating sources into a pool or grid has led to increased concern for preventing vulnerability to stability problems, in which failure of a single line can ultimately lead to the unanticipated blackout of an entire area served by a particular grid. This comprehensive reference will guide you through every aspect of improving the reliability and stability of electric transmission systems, so that the likelihood of such transmission failures can be significantly reduced. You'll find detailed coverage of the technical factors which must be considered in reducing the risk of failures, as well as hard-to-find information, such as the effect of high-speed breakers on stability, how to calculate unbalanced faults, multi-machine stability, and power factor control. The written presentation is highlighted with numerous diagrams and illustrations to facilitate understanding of concepts presented.
