| Understanding the full breadth and depth of power quality is a talent few, if any, individuals around the world possess. The sources of power quality problems run the gamut from the largest of power plants to the smallest of power electronics and from the vastness of the nation's power distribution network to the closeness of devices sharing a wall outlet.
This book is not intended to provide technical explanations or theory into how devices work. Its purpose is to provide end-users and other troubleshooters with examples of what others have done to solve similar problems. Whether a person is a facility engineer trying to maximize uptime or a utility engineer helping to improve the level of quality at a customer's facility, everyone needs case examples of solutions relevant to their operations which will point out the problem, the symptoms, and the subsequent cure.
The case studies included in this book will make it easy for the troubleshooter to see whether he or she is on the right track toward a viable solution.
Sections include chapters on design, wiring and grounding, problem solving, and harmonics. |
