Description

This book covers all the general and basic aspects of Electrical Power Distribution System courses offered by universities across India. The best part of the book is the language. The language is lucid and quite simple from a student’s point of view. Readers will be able to understand the problems which may occur while designing and operation of distribution systems and can suggest solution for the problem.

This book covers the following topics,

 

  • Electrical Power Distribution System and load characteristics.
  • Design considerations of primary system.
  • System analysis for voltage drop and power loss.
  • Distribution system protection and coordination.
  • Power factor improvement and economic justification.
  • Harmonics and Filters.
  • Voltage and reactive power control.
  • Electrical Power Quality and its effect on equipment’s.
