Synopsis
Aimed at engineers and technicians involved in the design, production, operation and testing of electrical systems and electronic equipment, this text provides an introduction to the fundamentals of lightning and overvoltage engineering. It begins with actual examples of overvoltage damage to electrical systems with electronic devices, and then goes on to discuss causes, such as atmospheric discharges, switching operations in voltage networks, electrostatic discharges and nuclear electromagnetic impulses. Numerous diagrams illustrate effective protective procedures and explain their practical realization. The operation and fields of application of proven overvoltage protection devices are considered, and relevant German and international standards given.

Review
"Embedded Generation is an important book, collating a variety of useful information based on...broad industrial and academic experience...an interesting read rather than just a dry academic text. Researchers in energy policy as well as electrical engineering students will find that the issues raised in Embedded Generation show that this is an exciting field in the industry and a necessary area for further research."
