Numerous changes are currently occurring in the electricity sector, including the impact of advanced technologies, environmental concerns, utility privatization, rising rates, and power shortages. In order to meet these challenges, the industry is reinventing itself, and with the implementation of electricity reforms and the entry of private companies, it anticipates growth. Electrical Power Distribution, written by a well-known expert, focuses on all these points and covers the topic from beginning to end. The book is celebrating its 30th anniversary with its sixth edition, which is a testament to both the size of its readership and the changes taking place in this industry. Features of This Edition: Two new chapters—Meter, Billing and Collection and Natural Distribution System—added; all previous chapters revised in light of the 2003 Electricity Act; additional problems and examples added to existing chapters. Students studying electrical engineering as well as engineers working for various electricity boards and companies that distribute electricity could benefit from this book's coverage. The book's Instructors' Manual has undergone a comprehensive revision to support the updated content.
