Condition monitoring of engineering plant has increased in
importance as engineering processes are automated and manpower is
reduced. However, electrical machinery receives attention only at
infrequent intervals when plant is shut down and the application of
protective relays to machines has also reduced operator
surveillance. A first edition of Condition Monitoring of Electrical
Machines, written by Tavner and Penman, was published in 1987. The
economics of industry have now changed, as a result of the
privatisation and deregulation of the energy industry, placing
emphasis on the importance of reliable operation of plant,
throughout the whole life cycle, regardless of first cost. The
availability of advanced electronics and software in powerful
instrumentation, computers, and digital signal processors (DSP) has
simplified our ability to instrument and analyse machinery. As a
result condition monitoring is now being applied to a wider range
of systems, from fault-tolerant drives of a few hundred watts in
the aerospace industry, to machinery of a few hundred megawatts in
major capital plant. In this new book the original authors have
been joined by Ran, an expert in power electronics and control, and
Sedding, an expert in the monitoring of electrical insulation
systems. Together the authors have revised and expanded the earlier
book, merging their own experience with that of machine analysts to
bring it up to date. The book is aimed at professional engineers in
the energy, process engineering and manufacturing industries, plus
research workers and students.
