The text is divided into two parts: electrical design and analysis and mechanical design and analysis. The electrical design and analysis portion of the book includes topics such as transmission system planning; basic concepts; transmission line parameters and the steady-state performance of transmission lines; disturbance of the normal operating conditions and other problems: symmetrical components and sequence impedances; in-depth analysis of balanced and unbalanced faults; extensive review of transmission system protection; detailed study of transient overvoltages and insulation coordination; underground cables; and limiting factors for extra-high and ultrahigh-voltage transmission in terms of corona, radio noise, and audible noise. The mechanical design and analysis portion of the book includes topics such as construction of overhead lines, the factors affecting transmission line route selection, right-of-way; insulator types, conductor vibration, sag and tension analysis, profile and plan of right-of-way, and templates for locating structures. Also included is a review of the methods for allocating transmission line fixed charges among joint users.
This book has been written especially for students or practicing engineers who want to teach themselves. Basic material has been explained carefully, clearly, and in detail with numerous examples. Each new term is clearly defined when it is introduced. Special features of the book include ample numerical examples and problems designed to apply the information presented in each chapter. A special effort has been made to familiarize the reader with the vocabulary and symbols used by the industry. The addition of the numerous impedance tables.
This book
has evolved from the content of courses given by the author at the California State University, Sacramento; the University of Missouri at Columbia; the University of Oklahoma; and Florida International University. It has been written for senior-level undergraduate and beginninglevel graduate students, as well as practicing engineers in the electric power utility industry. It can serve as a text for a two-semester course or, by judicious selection, the material in the text can also be condensed to suit a one-semester course.
