Short-Circuits in AC and DC Systems: ANSI, IEEE, and IEC Standards (Power Systems Handbook Book 1)

By J. C. Das
This book provides an understanding of the nature of short-circuit currents, current outage theories, types of circuit breakers, calculations according to ANSI / IEEE and IEC standards, the theoretical and practical basis of short-circuit current sources, and the classification structure of switching devices. The book aims to explain the nature of short-circuit currents, asymmetric components of asymmetric errors, and matrix methods of solutions, which are always used on digital computers. It includes innovations, worked examples, case studies, and solved problems.
