Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The objectives of this book are to provide the student with a clear understanding of the basic principles of power systems and to stimulate them to study the subject at a more advanced level. It deliberately omits some of the more advanced concepts such as stability and load flow calculations. The basic concepts covered are three-phase systems, real, apparent and reactive power, the per-unit system, control of frequency and voltage, and symmetrical fault calculations.

Includes bibliographical references (p.110-111) and index.
