Riassunto

This book explains the essentials of interconnected electric power systems in very basic, practical terms, giving a comprehensible overview of the terminology, electrical concepts, design considerations, construction practices, operational aspects, and industry standards for nontechnical professionals having an interest in the power industry. From generation to household wiring, this book explains it all in easy-to-understand terms.

Electrical Power System Basics exposes readers to all of the important aspects of an interconnected power system without assuming a great deal of existing knowledge or experience. Some very basic formulas are presented throughout the book and several examples, photographs, drawings, and illustrations are provided to help the reader gain a fundamental understanding of the subject.

Recensione

"This book is well written and offers a nice overview of power system fundamentals at a level that does not require advanced mathematics or physics." ( IEEE Power & Energy Magazine, November/December 2008)

"Highly recommends this work for its comprehensive discussion of electric power system terminology, and encourage non–engineering professionals in industry support and auxiliary services (product development, sales, marketing, etc.) to read and keep this excellent resource close at hand." (CHOICE, April 2008)

"′For the Nonelectrical Professional′ says this well–illustrated book′s subtitle, and the author does a good job of addressing that audience." (Electrical Apparatus, December 2007)
