Summary:

Combining select chapters from Grigsby's standard-setting The Electric Power Engineering Handbook with several chapters not found in the original work, Electric Power Transformer Engineering became widely popular for its comprehensive, tutorial-style treatment of the theory, design, analysis, operation, and protection of power transformers. For its second edition, this popular progeny rejoins the handbook as one in a set of five carefully focused books.

In addition to updates in nearly every chapter, this highly regarded reference brings to the handbook its original contributions, discussing phase-shifting, rectifier, and constant-voltage transformers as well as power transformer protection and transient-voltage response. It also includes two new sections in the chapter on reactors, covering installation considerations for dry-type air-core reactors as well as line traps and power line carrier communication-, data-, and protective-relaying systems. Major updates appear in the highly active areas of dry-type transformers, instrument transformers, reactors, and load-tap changers. This book offers convenient access to everything from basic theory, and concepts to detailed analysis of the individual components of a transformer.

Compiling everything you need to know about power transformers in a single source, this book...: Provides a detailed and comprehensive survey of modern electric power transformers, from theory to practice, Includes two new sections in the reactors chapter along with updated material reflecting recent advances and technological developments, Presents contributions from leading international experts active in various aspects of power transformer engineering, Surveys modern standards, practices, and technologies. Reflecting standards, technologies, and new developments around the world, Electric Power Transformer Engineering, Second Edition provides a thorough and up-to-date guide for power engineers at all levels of expertise.
