A standard practical reference source for identifying and applying fundamental concepts to maintain the electrical power quality standards in modern power systems
From the Back Cover
Power quality in Modern power systems presents an overview of power quality problems in electrical power system and is a critical source for identifying pitfalls and applying fundamental concepts for tackling and maintaining electrical power quality standards in power systems.
A useful tool for addressing why power quality is so important for power systems as well as how quality problems and their impact can affect the essentials of electric power, and how they might be anticipated to better address them. Supported by examples and practical case studies to enhance and reinforce learning objectives this book includes exercise problems and systematic answers at end of each chapter.
Covering current and emerging topics of power quality in smart grid, large scale renewable energy integration and micro-grid, nd national and international power quality standards, this reference uses case studies and real time measurements and examples to fully explore power quality analysis. Essential reading for graduate students, engineering professionals, researchers and industrial sectors working in the area of power quality.
