Transmission Network Protection: Theory and Practice / Edition 1

by Yeshwant G. Paithankar

Overview

From the basic fundamentals and principles of protective relaying to current research areas in protective systems and future developments in the field, this work covers all aspects of power system protection. It includes the implementation of relays using electromechanical devices, static devices and microprocessors; distance protection of high voltage and extra high voltage lines, including distance relay errors; and adaptive, dynamic, travelling wave and noise-based relays.

Basic philosophy of relaying; difference in protection requirements for increasing line voltage; line protection/overcurrent and directional relays; distance protection - HV and EHV line protection; carrier schemes for HV and EHV lines; current and potential transformers; basics of differential relays; generator protection; transformer protection; Bus-Bar protection; test procedures, benches and maintenance schedules; recent advances and futuristic views.

Editorial Reviews

Concerned with the technical failure of electrical power transmission, rather than deliberate attacks on them. Explains the conceptual aspects of protection for undergraduates and graduate students of electrical engineering. Includes discussions of such aspects as the basic philosophy of relaying, differences in protection requirements for increasing live voltage, current and potential transformers, generator protection, test procedures, maintenance schedules, recent advances and prospects, and central computer control and protection. Most of the chapters include exercises and problems. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
