Editorial ReviewsBook Description-A 5-part guide to all aspects of electrical power engineering.

-Uniquely comprehensive coverage of all subjects associated with powerengineering.

-A one-stop reference resource for power, control, transmission, protection,maintenance and testing electrical engineering

This is a book for the electrical power engineer or electrical engineeringstudent who needs a single source reference guide to every subjectcontained within that discipline. It covers a huge range of topics from

electric motors and generators to switchgear and transformers, capacitors,cabling and buses as well as testing and installation requirements. Eachsubject is covered comprehensively from theory to practice with relevantexamples and details on all relevant international standards including ISO,IEEE, ANSI, NEMA, BS-EN, DIN and of course IEC. There are also detailsof design, use and maintenance techniques that will make the book of vitalinterest to engineers responsible for plant power generation and supply inany industry.

Never before has so much ground been covered in a single volume referencesource. This five-part work is sure to be of great value to students,technicians and practising engineers as well as equipment designers andmanufacturers, and should become their one-stop shop for all informationneeds in this subject area.

From the PublisherPart 1:ELECTRIC MOTORSSelection, testing and protection includingstatic controls and hydraulic drives.Deals with 3-phase and single phase a.c.machines, restricted to induction motors and their protective switchgearsonly. DC drives, synchronous motors or d.c. generators are not covered inthis volume. But references have been provided for a d.c. motor and anexhaustive comparison of this machine with an a.c. machine has beendrawn, to assist users in an appropriate selection.
