Electrical Power Systems Quality

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
