Electric power distribution system engineering (2^nd Ed.)

Electric Power Distribution System Engineering addresses such topics as distribution system planning and load characteristics. With numerous examples and problems in each chapter, this book provides comprehensive coverage of applications of distribution transformers and capacitors, harmonics on distribution systems, distribution system protection, voltage regulation, reliability, electric power quality, design of subtransmission lines, distribution substations, primary and secondary systems, voltage drop, and power loss characteristics. The author takes special care to familiarize readers with industry terms and symbols by providing a glossary and clearly defining each term when it is introduced.
