Add to basketThis item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Inspired by a new revival of worldwide interest in extra-high-voltage (EHV) and ultra-high-voltage (UHV) transmission, High Voltage Engineering merges the latest research with the extensive experience of the best in the field to deliver a comprehensive treatment of electrical insulation systems for the next generation of utility engineers and electric power professionals. The book offers extensive coverage of the physical basis of high-voltage engineering, from insulation stress and strength to lightning attachment and protection and beyond. Presenting information critical to the design, selection, testing, maintenance, and operation of a myriad of high-voltage power equipment, this must-have text:Discusses power system overvoltages, electric field calculation, and statistical analysis of ionization and breakdown phenomena essential for proper planning and interpretation of high-voltage testsConsiders the breakdown of gases (SF6), liquids (insulating oil), solids, and composite materials, as well as the breakdown characteristics of long air gapsDescribes insulation systems currently used in high-voltage engineering, including air insulation and insulators in overhead power transmission lines, gas-insulated substation (GIS) and cables, oil-paper insulation in power transformers, paper-oil insulation in high-voltage cables, and polymer insulation in cablesExamines contemporary practices in insulation coordination in association with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) definition and the latest standardsExplores high-voltage testing and measuring techniques, from generation of test voltages to digital measuring methodsWith an emphasis on handling practical situations encountered in the operation of high-voltage power equipment, High Voltage Engineering provides readers with a detailed, real-world understanding of electrical insulation systems, including the various factors affecting-and the actual means of evaluating-insulation performance and their application in the establishment of technical specifications. 802 pp. Englisch.

With an emphasis on handling practical situations encountered in the operation of high-voltage power equipment, High Voltage Engineering provides readers with a detailed, real-world understanding of electrical insulation systems, including the various factors affecting―and the actual means of evaluating―insulation performance and their application in the establishment of technical specifications.
Farouk A.M. Rizk holds a BS and MS from Cairo University, Egypt; a Ph.D from the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden; and a doctorate of technology from Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden. He has worked with ASEA (ABB), Sweden; the Egyptian Electricity Authority; and the Institut de Recherche d'Hydro-Quebec, Varennes, Canada. As international chairman of IEC TC 28: Insulation Coordination, he made major contributions to standardization. An elected IEEE fellow for contributions to the science of high-voltage technology and for technical leadership in the advancement of the electric power industry, many times awarded, and a CIGRE distinguished member, he is currently president of Lightning Electrotechnologies, Inc. and Expodev, Inc., both in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. His research covers many topics in high-voltage and high-power engineering.
Giao N. Trinh holds a BS and Ph.D from Laval University, Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. He has worked with the Institut de Recherche d'Hydro-Quebec, Varennes, Canada and Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal, Quebec, Canada. He holds two patents and is the author or co-author of many technical papers in the areas of corona and partial-discharge phenomena, high voltage testing, and liquid, solid, and gaseous power equipment insulation. An elected IEEE fellow for contributions to the understanding of dielectric and arc phenomena in gas-insulated cables and PES, and a DEIS member, he received a Prize Paper Award from the Substation Committee for his work on the assessment of the risk of burn-through of gas-insulated cables.

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.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to BuchWeltWeit Ludwig Meier e.K., Bergisch Gladbach, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
