High Voltage Engineering: A Comprehensive Textbook for Electrical Engineering Students (Paperback or Softback)

High Voltage Engineering is a comprehensive academic textbook designed to support students, teachers, and professionals in understanding the fundamental concepts and practical applications of high-voltage engineering.

The book covers the major topics required for the study of High Voltage Engineering, with systematic explanations, diagrams, circuits, waveforms, formulas, and practical applications.

The book includes five major units covering:

• High Voltage DC and AC Generation
• Voltage Multiplier and Cockcroft–Walton Circuits
• Cascade Transformers and Impulse Voltage Generation
• Marx Multistage Impulse Generators
• Overvoltages and Travelling Waves
• Breakdown in Gases, Liquids and Solid Dielectrics
• Insulation Testing and Measurement Techniques
• Dielectric Constant and Loss Factor
• Schering Bridge and Partial Discharge
• Overvoltage Protection
• Ground Wires and Counterpoise
• Shielding and Protective Zones
• Surge Absorbers and Lightning Arresters
• Insulation Coordination

The book also presents important concepts through illustrative diagrams, circuit configurations, waveforms, and practical examples, making it useful for examination preparation as well as conceptual understanding.

High Voltage Engineering is intended as a useful academic reference for Electrical Engineering students and readers seeking a structured understanding of high-voltage generation, insulation, breakdown phenomena, testing, and protection.
