This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book summarizes insights into stationary high-current connections across all voltage levels. These are applied in existing facilities and for new constructions in electrical power engineering, e-mobility, and battery storage technology. Current-carrying stationary connections are indispensable in countless applications. Complex systems often fail due to inadequate or heavily loaded connections. A large number of these connections are assembled and must function reliably over their required lifespan. To ensure this under current demands, correct conductor and coating materials must be chosen, robust design and construction ensured, proper installation guaranteed, and a secured temperature limit for the desired lifespan considering environmental conditions must be known. The book covers theories on contact physics, key conductor and coating materials, factors influencing electrical contact behavior, the relationship between mechanical and electrical contact behavior, aging physics, and long-term behavior under various operating and environmental conditions, along with design criteria for construction. Additionally, it presents approaches to numerically model electrical-mechanical-thermal behavior, introduces evaluation criteria, and outlines qualification testing methods. It serves as a comprehensive reference based on scientific research and practical insights from the past 40 years. 283 pp. Englisch.…

About the Author
PD Dr.-Ing. habil. Stephan Schlegel has been researching the contact and long-term behavior of current-carrying connections with a focus on screw connections for more than sixteen years. As a group leader and currently as a deputy chairholder, he teaches modules on the fundamentals of electrical engineering and in the specialization of electrical power engineering, focusing on topics in high-voltage and high-current technology.
Dr.-Ing. Christian Hildmann primarily focuses on the mechanical, electrical, and thermal contact and long-term behavior of current-carrying connections especially for stranded conductors. He has been a research associate at the Dresden University of Technology for fourteen years and has been leading the research group for Electrical Contacts and Connections since 2020.
Dr.-Ing. Toni Israel works in the R&D Contact Technology department at Stäubli Electrical Connectors in Allschwil, Switzerland. He conducted research at the TU Dresden on the behavior of high-performance plug connections used in electrical energy and automotive technology during high-duration and short-duration loads. He teaches electric-mechanical stresses of electrical contacts and devices, with a special focus on fault currents.
Dr.-Ing. Michael Gatzsche works at Hitachi Energy as R&D Principal Engineer in the Technology Center of the High Voltage Products business unit in Zurich. His work focuses on eco-efficient insulation gases and the ampacity of switchgear. Dr. Gatzsche has 10 years of experience in research, design, and application of current-carrying connections and contacts, gained through his work at TU Dresden and Hitachi Energy.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
