Electric Power Engineering

This book is about electric energy: its generation, its transmission from the point of generation to where it is required, and its transformation into required forms. To achieve this end, a number of devices are essential-such as generators, trans­ mission lines, transformers, and electric motors. We discuss the design, construc­ tion, and operating characteristics of the electric devices used in the transformation to and from electric energy. This text is designed to be used in a one-semes...
