Back Cover Copy
This book provides a broad overview of electricity utilization in the industrial environment. Industrial Power Distribution serves as both an introductory textbook and a comprehensive reference. Based on over 20 years of experience in electric power system design and analysis, author Ralph E. Fehr III strikes a careful balance between application and theory, and provides insight to answer "why" instead of just "how." Features include: - references to standards, codes, and design practices
- extensive examination of transformer connections
- concise yet thorough coverage of short circuit analysis
- practical guide to raceway design
- in-depth exploration of ladder logic
introduction to power quality issues
Each chapter concludes with questions to verify the comprehension of key concepts and problems to check the ability to perform realistic power system design and analysis.
