Maintaining the reliable and efficient generation, transmission and distribution of electrical power is of the utmost importance in a world where electricity is the inevitable means of energy acquisition, transportation, and utilization, and the principle mode of communicating media. Our modern society is entirely dependent on electricity, so problems involving the continuous delivery of power can lead to the disruption and breakdown of vital economic and social infrastructures. This book brings together comprehensive technical information on power system engineering, covering the fundamental theory of power systems and their components, and the related analytical approaches. Key features: Presents detailed theoretical explanations of simple power systems as an accessible basis for understanding the larger, more complex power systems. Examines widely the theory, practices and implementation of several power sub-systems such as generating plants, over-head transmission lines and power cable lines, sub-stations, including over-voltage protection, insulation coordination as well as power systems control and protection. Discusses steady-state and transient phenomena from basic power-frequency range to lightning- and switching-surge ranges, including system faults, wave-form distortion and lower-order harmonic resonance. Explains the dynamics of generators and power systems through essential mathematical equations, with many numerical examples. Analyses the historical progression of power system engineering, in particular the descriptive methods of electrical circuits for power systems. Written by an author with a wealth of experience in the field, both in industry and academia, the Handbook of Power System Engineering provides a single reference work for practicing engineers, researchers and those working in industry that want to gain knowledge of all aspects of power systems. It is also valuable for advanced students taking courses or modules in power system engineering.

Power Systems Engineering and Mathematics investigates the application of mathematical aids, particularly the techniques of resource planning, to some of the technical-economic problems of power systems engineering. Topics covered include the process of engineering design and the use of computers in system design and operation; power system planning and operation; time scales and computation in system operation; and load prediction and generation capacity. This volume is comprised of 13 chapters and begins by outlining the stages in the synthesis of designs (or operating states) for engineering systems in general, as well as some of the mathematical techniques that can be used. The next chapter relates these stages to power system design and operation, indicating the principal factors that determine a power system's viable and economic expansion and operation. The problem of choosing the standards for transmission and distribution plants is then considered, together with the choice of generation (""plant mix"") to meet the total requirement and the sequence of studies and decisions required in system operation. The remaining chapters deal with security assessment, scheduling of a generating plant, and the dispatching of generation. This book is intended for engineers and managers in the electricity supply industry, advanced students of electrical engineering, and workers in other industries with interest in resource allocation problems.
