This Second Edition has been expanded and updated to reflect the increasing sensitivity of microelectronic devices and the ever-growing stress placed upon the power grid.
This much-needed resource discusses every essential aspect of basic power quality and methods used to protect electronic systems and on understanding the causes of power quality problems and learning how to prevent them.
Coverage includes:
* How to protect against voltage sags and interruptions
* The principles of harmonics and filtering
* Common wiring and grounding problems, along with solutions
* Transient overvoltages due to lightning and switching
* The technical impact of problems on various load equipment
* Utility and end-user strategies for improved power qualities
* Maintaining power quality in distributed generation systems
* Benchmarking power quality
* Power quality in electric wiring
* And much more!
Electrical Power Systems Quality is an invaluable tool to everyone working in the field, from utility engineers to industrial plan technicians to power quality consultants
