Recommendations for electric power system reference
(OP)
Hello,
Any recommendations for books (practical reference) regarding electric power systems (ie distrubution, gensets, protection/codes/safety). I have been more on the secondary side of things and need to brush-up.
Thanks

RE: Recommendations for electric power system reference
Play with key reference and advance search features available in this forum. Consider searching for key words such as "references", "book", "power system", "protection", “distribution”, “transmission”, etc.
Sample of those references you should found as follow:

Thread238-37624
There are available many power system book and manufacturer publications. Some of them are as follow:
- Electrical Transmission and Distribution Reference Handbook (Westinghouse/ABB)
- Power System Analysis- Stevenson.
- Analysis of Faulted Power System - Anderson.
- IEEE Color Book Collection (Std 141, 242,etc)
- Elect Par. System Protection & Coordination- M. Anthony
- Indust. & Commercial Power System Handbook-Prabhakara..
- Elect Dist. System Protection - Cooper Pwr. Systems
- Okonite Eng Manual (Available in the Internet).
Etc.
If you should have a particular area let other know for more specific advice.
Good luck.

1. Theodore Wildi, "Electrical Machines, Drives and Power Systems"...an excellent analysis of most aspects of power systems at a simplified level, no calculus used.
2. B.M. Weedy, "Electric Power Systems".
