Understand industrial and commercial power systems with this essential guide

Power system analysis is an essential component of new system design, system expansion, and existing system operation. A wide range of published standards and computing tools is available for the analysis of industrial and commercial (I&C) power systems. This is the first book to provide specific information and practical analysis of industrial and commercial systems.

Industrial and Commercial Power System Analysis Fundamentals and Practice fills this gap with a handy, accessible reference for students and practicing engineers. Its chapters cover basic equipment and system configurations and their associated computer models, operating conditions, numerical solution essentials, and analysis objectives and approaches. The result is a volume which directly contributes to the skills needed to apply power systems analysis software in research and industrial applications.

Readers will also find:

• An introductory chapter outlining the basic characteristics of I&C power systems
• Detailed discussion of topics including modeling and simulation techniques, data requirements and data preparation, tuning and validation, study scenario selections, and many more
• Applicable industrial codes and standards
• Concrete examples of I&C power system analysis in practice

Industrial and Commercial Power System Analysis and Practice is ideal for undergraduates, graduates, or practicing engineers looking for an up-to-date reference on the essential tools and standards of power system analysis.
