Summary:

The J&P Transformer Book has been in print for 80 years, and is renowned internationally as the definitive reference work covering the design, construction, installation, monitoring and maintenance of power transformers - in electricity generation and distribution, electricity substations, and industrial applications. The broad scope of the Transformer Book and its practical focus makes it ideal reading for graduate engineers embarking on a design career, students of electrical engineering, and a broader audience in the power engineering and transformer manufacturing sectors. However, it is no
