,CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION TO POWER SYSTEMS
This chapter introduces the foundational concepts of electric power systems,
including the structure and components of modern power systems, the historical
development of the electric utility industry, and the basic principles of AC
power. Key concepts include the generation, transmission, and distribution of
electrical energy, the three-phase system, and the importance of power system
reliability and stability. Understanding these principles is essential for analyzing
and designing modern power systems.
