Electric Power Systems A Conceptual Introduction

Updated with new material, this book offers careful explanations of basic math and physical concepts, with references to related ideas outside of electrical engineering and targeted at readers from different fields. Useful as a quick reference for readers, this book is organised to allow readers to reference from any part of the book without missing out on vital information. Comprised of 16 chapters, additional material includes 7 new chapters on power electronics, power quality, system performance and stability, matching generation and load, transformers, transmission lines, and three-phase power, with extra sub-categories either revised or added in. This book clearly explains the equations and concepts, adding depth and mathematical rigor while still emphasizing conceptual understanding. It also includes updated material on emerging technologies, and end-of-chapter problems to make it suitable as a course text.
