Electrical Relays, Protection and Control Handbook Vol. 4

Deregulation, increased loads, and limited resources/rights-of-way available for the building of new transmission lines are routinely pushing modern power transmission networks to operating limits.

The challenges of evolving faults, faults with high fault resistance, power swing blocking, and reliable fault clearance during system power swings are just a few of the topics covered in this 96-page handbook.

Articles such as Analog Simulator Tests Qualify Distance Relay Designs to Today's Stringent Protection Requirements, The 12 Most Common Mistakes of Specifying Circuit Protection for Equipment, and Short Circuit Current Ratings for Industrial Control Panels also provide valuable tips for the commercial and industrial sector in maintaining proper protection and control of electrical systems.
