Electric Power Transmission and Distribution is meant to serve as a textbook for students of B.Tech and B.E. Electrical Engineering. This is, in fact, the first course book for the electrical engineering student in which almost all concepts of transmission and distribution are covered in a single book.
This book is mainly divided into two sections. The first section deals with power supply schemes, overhead transmission of electrical power, conductor materials, electrical and mechanical design aspects of transmission lines, performance of transmission lines, different phenomena that occur in the transmission system and overhead. It also covers the transmission of electric power by underground cables.
The second section deals with electrical distribution system, where D.C. and A.C. distribution system concepts, different types of D.C. distribution schemes and different solutions to solve the A.C. distribution problems are covered. The book covers the syllabi of many universities in India for a course in power transmission and distribution.
S Rama Subbanna & B Loveswara Rao
Rama Subbanna is presently Associate Professor in Sasi Institute of Technology and Engineering in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Tadepalligudem, West Godavari District, Andhra Pradesh. He has 13 years of teaching and 7 years of research experience. He has published a number of research papers in national and international journals. He also presented papers in international conferences. As Electric Power Transmission and Distribution has become the chief subject in Electrical engineering education, it is important for students to acquire proper knowledge of it. The motivation behind writing came when the author observed the struggle of the students in comprehending the concepts of power transmission and distribution while following various books and lectures on this subject at the graduate level. Therefore, the book has been authored to simplify the concepts for the students of electrical engineering and equip them to face any examination with full confidence and caliber. The contents have been developed, keeping in mind the importance and relevance of the subject in many aspects. It will help them to understand the subject of their chosen technical field in a highly thought-provoking manner.
