An update to the comprehensive reference that presents a classical treatment of systems analysis, now including the IEC-Standards 2010 Based on the revised Japanese edition, published by Maruzen in March 2011, this book provides a single reference work for practitioners in the industry who wish to gain knowledge of all aspects of power system engineering. It is unique in its coverage and scientific explanations, taking a practical-viewpoint where other titles show only the academic view. Detailed explanations of the fundamental science can be seen throughout the book. Includes new chapters and coverage of the theories and practical applications of power electronics, including EHV and high voltage applications such as DC-transmission, SVC, speed adjustable pumped storage hydro generation, and various power conditioner applications such as UPS, wind generation, and FACTs Includes the IEC-Standards from 2010 Unique in taking a practical engineering view-point, rather than academic A thorough treatment of fundamental principles of power system engineering and theories of the power system network, combining theories and technologies, usually treated in separate specialised fields, into a single unified hierarchy
