Describing in detail how electrical power systems are planned and designed, this monograph illustrates the required structures of systems, substations and equipment using international standards and latest computer methods.The book discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the different arrangements within switchyards and of the topologies of the power systems, describing methods to determine the main design parameters of cables, overhead lines, and transformers needed to realize the supply task, as well as the influence of environmental conditions on the design and the permissible loading of the equipment. Additionally, general requirements for protection schemes and the main schemes related to the various protection tasks are given.With its focus on the requirements and procedures of tendering and project contracting, this book enables the reader to adapt the basics of power systems and equipment design to special tasks and engineering projects.

About the author
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jürgen Schlabbach, Jahrgang 1952, Mitglied VDI und IEEE, studierte Elektrische Energietechnik an der zur damaligen Zeit noch Technische Hochschule genannten TU Darmstadt, wo er 1982 promoviert wurde. Anschließend war er bei einem großen deutschen Ingenieurunternehmen mit der Planung elektrischer Netze des In- und Auslandes betraut. Seit 1992 leitet er an der Fachhochschule Bielefeld das Lehrgebiet "Elektrische und regenerative Energieerzeugung und -verteilung". Hauptarbeitsgebiete sind Planung elektrischer Netze, Analyse von Störungen und deren Behebung, Bewertung von Netzrückwirkungen und Auslegung von Abhilfemaßnahmen sowie Nutzung "regenerativer Energietechniken".
