Insulation Coordination for Power Systems (Hardcover)

This detailed and comprehensive reference/text presents the latest developments in power system insulation coordination-emphasizing the achievement of optimum insulation strength at minimum cost. Comprehensively covers a myriad of insulation coordination techniques, examining electrical transmission and distribution lines and substations Keeping in mind the conventional (or deterministic) method of insulation coordination, as well as the probabilistic method with its emphasis on statistical analysis, Insulation Coordination for Power Systems reviews factors of power transmission reliability such as strike distances or clearances, arrangement and number of insulators, and use of overhead ground or shield wires assesses phase-ground and phase-phase clearances, supplemental tower grounding, and substation shielding evaluates insulation strength, traveling waves, line arresters, and induced overvoltages compares new insulation methods with those outlined in standard IEEE and IEC guides highlights sources of stress: lightning, switching, temporary overvoltages, and normal power frequency voltage considers operation of devices to reduce stress, such as surge arresters and closing resistors in circuit breakers and more Supplemented with end-of-chapter problem sets and over 1700 literature citations, tables, drawings, and equations, Insulation Coordination for Power Systems is an ideal reference for electrical, industrial power system, and manufacturing engineers, and an excellent text for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
