The structure of the electric power system is very large and complex. Nevertheless, its main components (or subsystems) can be identified as the generation system, the transmission system, and the distribution system. These three systems are the basis of the electric power industry. Today, there are various textbooks dealing with a broad range of topics in the power system area of electrical engineering. Some of these are considered to be classics. However, they do not particularly concentrate on the topics specifically dealing with electric power transmission engineering. Therefore, this text is unique in that it is written specifically for the in-depth study of modern power transmission engineering. This book has evolved from the content of courses given by the author at California State University, Sacramento, the University of Missouri at Columbia, the University of Oklahoma, and Florida International University. It has been written for senior-level undergraduate and beginning-level graduate students, as well as practicing engineers in the electrical power utility industry. It can serve as a text for a two-semester course, or by a judicious selection; the material can also be condensed to suit a single-semester course. This book has been particularly written for a student or a practicing engineer who may want to teach himself. Basic material has been explained carefully, clearly, and in detail with numerous examples. Each new term is clearly defined when it is first introduced. Special features of the book include ample numerical examples and problems designed to use the information presented in each chapter. A special effort has been made to familiarize the reader with the vocabulary and symbols used by the industry. The addition of numerous appendices, including impedance tables for overhead lines, transformers, and underground cables makes the text self-sufficient. The book includes topics such as power system planning, basic concepts, transmission line parameters and the steady-state performance of transmission lines, disturbance of the normal operating conditions and other problems, symmetrical components and sequence impedances, in-depth analysis of balanced and unbalanced faults, and an extensive review of transmission system protection. A detailed review of load flow analysis is also included. A complete and separate solution’s manual is available for the instructors.

Anderson of Power Math Associates. The author is most grateful to numerous colleagues and his professors, particularly Dr. Dave D. Robb of D. D. Robb and Associates for his encouragement and invaluable suggestions and friendship over the years; to his dear friend, late Dr. Don O. Koval of the University of Alberta; and for their interest, encouragement, and invaluable suggestions, late Dr. Adly Girgis of Clemson University and Dr. Anjan Bose. A special thank you is extended to C.J. Baldwin, Manager, Advanced Systems Technology, Westinghouse Electric Corporation. The author is also indebted to numerous undergraduate and graduate students who studied portions of the book at California State University, Sacramento, the University of Missouri at Columbia, and the University of Oklahoma, and made countless contributions and valuable suggestions for improvements. Among them are Alan Escoriza, Mira Konjevod, Saud Alsairari, Joel Ervine of Pacific Gas & Electric Inc., and Tom Lyons of Sacramento Municipal Utility. xvii Author Turan Gönen is professor of electrical engineering and director of the Electrical Power Educational Institute at California State University, Sacramento. Previously, Dr. Gönen was professor of electrical engineering and director of the Energy Systems and Resources Program at the University of Missouri–Columbia. Professor Gönen also held teaching positions at the University of Missouri– Rolla, the University of Oklahoma, Iowa State University, Florida International University, and Ankara Technical College. He has taught electrical machines and electric power engineering for over thirty-nine years. Dr. Gönen also has a strong background in the power industry; for eight years, he worked as a design engineer in numerous companies both in the United States and abroad. He has served as a consultant for the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), Aramco, Black & Veatch Consultant Engineers, and the public utility industry. Professor Gönen has written over 100 technical papers as well as four other books: Electric Power Distribution System Engineering, Electrical Machines with MATLAB, Electric Power Transmission System Engineering: Analysis and Design, and Engineering Economy for Engineering Managers. Turan Gönen is a Life Fellow member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
