Beschreibung
Due to the complexity of power systems combined with other factorssuch as increasing susceptibility of equipment, power quality (PQ)is apt to waver. With electricity in growing demand, low PQ is onthe rise and becoming notoriously difficult to remedy. It is anissue that confronts professionals on a daily basis, but few havethe required knowledge to diagnose and solve these problems.
Handbook of Power Quality examines of the full panoramaof PQ disturbances, with background theory and guidelines onmeasurement procedures and problem solving. It uses theperspectives of both power suppliers and electricity users, withcontributions from experts in all aspects of PQ supplying a vitalbalance of scientific and practical information on thefollowing:
* frequency variations;
* the characteristics of voltage, including dips, fluctuationsand flicker;
* the continuity and reliability of electricity supply, itsstructure, appliances and equipment;
* the relationship of PQ with power systems, distributedgeneration, and the electricity market;
* the monitoring and cost of poor PQ;
* rational use of energy.
An accompanying website hosts case studies for each chapter,demonstrating PQ practice; how problems are identified, analysedand resolved. The website also includes extensive appendiceslisting the current standards, mathematical formulas, andprinciples of electrical circuits that are critical for theoptimization of solutions.
This comprehensive handbook explains PQ methodology with ahands-on approach that makes it essential for all practising powersystems engineers and researchers. It simultaneously acts as areference for electrical engineers and technical managers who meetwith power quality issues and would like to further their knowledgein this area.
