Inspired by a new revival of worldwide interest in
extra-high-voltage (EHV) and ultra-high-voltage (UHV) transmission,
High Voltage Engineering merges the latest research with the
extensive experience of the best in the field to deliver a
comprehensive treatment of electrical insulation systems for the
next generation of utility engineers and electric power
professionals. The book offers extensive coverage of the physical
basis of high-voltage engineering, from insulation stress and
strength to lightning attachment and protection and beyond.
Presenting information critical to the design, selection, testing,
maintenance, and operation of a myriad of high-voltage power
equipment, this must-have text: Discusses power system
overvoltages, electric field calculation, and statistical analysis
of ionization and breakdown phenomena essential for proper planning
and interpretation of high-voltage tests Considers the breakdown of
gases (SF6), liquids (insulating oil), solids, and composite
materials, as well as the breakdown characteristics of long air
gaps Describes insulation systems currently used in high-voltage
engineering, including air insulation and insulators in overhead
power transmission lines, gas-insulated substation (GIS) and
cables, oil-paper insulation in power transformers, paper-oil
insulation in high-voltage cables, and polymer insulation in cables
Examines contemporary practices in insulation coordination in
association with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) definition and the latest standards Explores high-voltage
testing and measuring techniques, from generation of test voltages
to digital measuring methods With an emphasis on handling practical
situations encountered in the operation of high-voltage power
equipment, High Voltage Engineering provides readers with a
detailed, real-world understanding of electrical insulation
systems, including the various factors affecting-and the actual
means of evaluating-insulation performance and their application in
the establishment of technical specifications.
