POWER SYSTEM PROTECTION IN SMART GRID ENVIRONMENT (HB 2019) Hardcover

As power flow in interconnected distributed generation systems becomes two-way, leading to network issues, smart grids offer a solution by improving all stages of electricity – generation, transmission, substations, distribution, and consumption. The goal is to create an electrical system that is clean, safe (protected), secure, reliable, efficient, and sustainable. This book focuses on fault analysis, fuses, circuit breakers, instrument transformers, and relay technology. It also demonstrates how to set up transmission line protection using DIGSILENT Power Factory software. This book is designed for senior undergraduate and graduate students, as well as researchers in power systems, transmission and distribution, and protection systems within the broader field of electrical engineering.
