Substation Automation Handbook
The electric power industry is going through a period of dramatic changes caused by restructuring, deregulation, downsizing, requirements for improved power quality and operation close to the stability limits. At the same time we have seen the significant improvements in multifunctional Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) and the communications in substations. All of this makes open Substation Automation (SA) systems a key factor in the efficient operation of electric power system.
Successful design and implementation of Substation Automation Systems is possible only with a good understanding of their functionality, the hierarchy of the different functions, the devices being integrated and the tools used in the engineering process. There is a very limited number of books on this subject and that is why the Substation Automation Handbook can help many engineers and technicians working in the field of electric power systems protection, automation and control improve their knowledge and understanding about the role of SA.
