Each chapter contains illustrative worked problems, exercises (some with answers) and a bibliography.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The book provides a clear, systematic and exhaustive exposition of various aspects of Generation Distribution and Utilization of Electrical Energy. The modern distribution network is spread over a large geographical area and hence the concept of distribution automation has been discussed so as to operate the system with a higher index of reliability and more economically. Various aspects of utilization viz. electric heating and welding, illumination engineering, and electrolytic processes have been discussed. Modern trends in electric traction, viz. the role of SCADA in electric traction and automation in electric traction have been discussed in great detail.
