High Voltage Engineering for Beginners. Principles and fundamentals

      Аннотация: Now days the power transmission voltages have reached 1200 kV due to a great demand for generation and transmission of electrical power. This made every electrical engineering to have a thorough knowledge in the high voltage engineering subject.The study of high voltage engineering helps in solving the complicated problems due to high voltages arising in high voltage transmission and distribution lines efficiently and safely. In order to design and develop the electrical apparatus for operation, protection and measurement and control of EHVAC, HVDC and HVDS lines, it is essential to understand the principles and problems associated with High Voltage Engineering.The content provided here in general approach starts from basic concepts of electric field stresses, then deals with break down phenomena of all types of dielectric materials, generation and measurements of High AC, DC, impulse voltages testing technologies in high voltage.It can help the upcoming electrical design engineers as a reference in the specialization.
