The revised edition presents, extends, and updates a thorough
analysis of the factors that cause and accelerate the aging of
conductive and insulating materials of which transmission and
distribution electrical apparatus is made. New sections in the
second edition summarize the issues of the aging, reliability, and
safety of electrical apparatus, as well as supporting equipment in
the field of generating renewable energy (solar, wind, tide, and
wave power). When exposed to atmospheric corrosive gases and
fluids, contaminants, high and low temperatures, vibrations, and
other internal and external impacts, these systems deteriorate;
eventually the ability of the apparatus to function properly is
destroyed. In the modern world of "green energy", the equipment
providing clean, electrical energy needs to be properly maintained
in order to prevent premature failure. The book's purpose is to
help find the proper ways to slow down the aging of electrical
apparatus, improve its performance, and extend the life of power
generation, transmission, and distribution equipment.
Lubrication of Electrical and Mechanical Components in Electric
Power Equipment presents an analysis of multiple applications of
lubricants in the power industry for both electrical and mechanical
parts. One of the key features of this book includes a look at the
use of lubricants for surfaces of electrical and mechanical parts
protection from mechanical wear and friction. Also included are
examples of degradation due to fretting, as well as corrosion
protection when lubricant is a barrier between metallic surfaces
and atmospheric pollutants. This book analyzes the effects of
chemical composition and consistency (fluids, greases, solid
lubricants) and the durability of lubricants in regard to various
types of contacts and mechanical parts material, design and load.
Focused on the importance of carefully choosing the lubricants to
maintain a stable contact resistance; preserve the physical
integrity of the contact surface; and extend the useful life of
mechanical parts, such as bearings, the author presents an
exhaustive list of lubricants manufacturers and products
recommended for use in the electrical industry.

Electrical distribution and transmission systems are complex
combinations of various conductive and insulating materials. When
exposed to atmospheric corrosive gases, contaminants, extreme
temperatures, vibrations, and other internal and external impacts,
these systems deteriorate, and sooner or later their ability to
function properly is destroyed. Electrical Power Transmission and
Distribution: Aging and Life Extension Techniques offers practical
guidance on ways to slow down the aging of these electrical
systems, improve their performance, and extend their life.
Recognize the Signs of Aging in Equipment-and Learn How to Slow It
A reference manual for engineering, maintenance, and training
personnel, this book analyzes the factors that cause materials to
deteriorate and explains what you can do to reduce the impact of
these factors. In one volume, it brings together extensive
information previously scattered among manufacturers'
documentation, journal papers, conference proceedings, and general
books on plating, lubrication, insulation, and other areas. Shows
you how to identify the signs of equipment aging Helps you
understand the causes of equipment deterioration Suggests practical
techniques for protecting electrical apparatus from deterioration
and damage Supplies information that can be used to develop manuals
on proper maintenance procedures and choice of materials Provides
numerous examples from industry This book combines research and
engineering material with maintenance recommendations given in
layperson's terms, making it useful for readers from a range of
backgrounds. In particular, it is a valuable resource for personnel
responsible for the utilization, operation, and maintenance of
electrical transmission and distribution equipment at power plants
and industrial facilities.
