Protective Relaying: Principles and Applications, Second Edition (Power Engineering, 5)

Maintaining the features that made the previous edition a bestseller, this book covers large and small utility systems as well as industrial and commercial systems. The author provides a completely new treatment of generator protection in compliance with governmental rules and regulations and supplies expanded information on symmetrical components. The text delineates individual protection practices for all equipment components; furnishes an overview of power system grounding, including system ferroresonance and safety grounding basics; analyzes power system performance during abnormal conditions; describes the relationship of input source performance to protection; and much more.

Praise for the previous edition:
...well written, technical, and includes bibliographies at the end of each chapter. To further illustrate the concepts that have been discussed, there are problems at the end of the text that have been developed over many years of actual experience. In addition to being a good reference book for technical libraries, engineers, and technicians, it is a very useful handbook for users, manufacturers and installers.
