Implementing the automation of electric distribution networks, from
simple remote control to the application of software-based decision
tools, requires many considerations, such as assessing costs,
selecting the control infrastructure type and automation level,
deciding on the ambition level, and justifying the solution through
a business case. Control and Automation of Electric Power
Distribution Systems addresses all of these issues to aid you in
resolving automation problems and improving the management of your
distribution network. Bringing together automation concepts as they
apply to utility distribution systems, this volume presents the
theoretical and practical details of a control and automation
solution for the entire distribution system of substations and
feeders. The fundamentals of this solution include depth of
control, boundaries of control responsibility, stages of
automation, automation intensity levels, and automated device
preparedness. To meet specific performance goals, the authors
discuss distribution planning, performance calculations, and
protection to facilitate the selection of the primary device,
associated secondary control, and fault indicators. The book also
provides two case studies that illustrate the business case for
distribution automation (DA) and methods for calculating benefits,
including the assessment of crew time savings. As utilities strive
for better economies, DA, along with other tools described in this
volume, help to achieve improved management of the distribution
network. Using Control and Automation of Electric Power
Distribution Systems, you can embark on the automation solution
best suited for your needs.
A fellow Devonian, James Northcote (1746 1831) was an admirer and
pupil of Sir Joshua Reynolds, whose two-volume biography he
published in 1813 15. Reissued here is the 'revised and augmented'
second edition of 1818. Northcote is self-deprecating as to his
fitness for the task, but claims that a worthy biography of a great
artist can be written only by another artist, and his close
personal knowledge of his subject and the circle in which Reynolds
moved gives him insights, as well as providing anecdotes, which
would not be available to a more 'professional' author. Volume 1
covers the first fifty years of Reynolds' life, and includes
accounts of Reynolds' development as an artist, his growing fame,
the founding of the Royal Academy and the first six of his
Discourses on Art (also reissued in this series), which Northcote
defends against claims that they were not written by Reynolds
himself."

covers the remainder of Reynolds' life, including a description of
his elaborate funeral and various assessments of his work, as well
as details of the sale of his paintings, and a short account of the
life of William Gandy, an obscure seventeenth-century painter whom
Reynolds greatly admired."
