Download or read book Fault Calculations of Industrial/commercial Power Systems written by Frank Mercede and published by Institute of Electrical & Electronics Engineers(IEEE). This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For every power engineer, including plant and utility engineers at all levels... This self-study course reviews the fundamental theory and practical requirements to perform short-circuit calculations on industrial and commercial power distribution systems according to Chapter 4 of the IEEE Red Book (i.e. ANSI/IEEE Standard 141-1993). The results of these calculations are then used for the proper selection of short-circuit capabilities of low and medium voltage circuit breakers and fuses. This course should be particularly useful to practicing power engineers and power engineering students who are employed as plant engineers with heavy industrial and commercial customers, utility engineers who work at the distribution level, and power engineering consultants. This course is a perfect complement to and extension of the subject matter as presented in the IEEE Red Book, Buff Book and Gray Book.
