Technological advances and structural changes within the electric utility industry mandate that protection engineers develop a solid understanding of the related new technologies as well as of power system operations and economics in order to function proficiently. Continuing in the bestselling tradition of the previous editions by the late J. Lewis Blackburn, Protective Relaying: Principles and Applications, Third Edition retains the fundamentals of protection relays and power system protection while incorporating new developments in the field. Thoroughly updated and revised, this third edition focuses on technological changes in the design of protective systems, the practical concerns of power system protection encountered by users, and the techniques for protecting typical facilities used in modern power systems. New to the Third Edition · Expanded coverage of the requirements for generator intertie protection, generator protection, and generator excitation systems · The latest technologies in microprocessor applications, including digital-based devices and designs · Protection issues, such as capacitor bank protection, underfrequency and undervoltage load shedding, special protection schemes, DC tripping scheme designs, fault location, and event reports Building on the excellence of the preceding editions, this book will continue to serve as a basic reference for newcomers to the area as well as for experienced engineers. By sharing his first-hand experience with protection practices, the author offers valuable realistic insight into this field..

"This book, with 16 chapters and five appendices, arguably may be the most comprehensive single volume on generator and motor protection on the market. "…this book presents to practicing utility engineers a wealth of information that should be included in their library. Even those not directly involved in protection should have available to them the theory and practices associated with the protection described here "…Throughout the book, typical protective equipment settings are calculated with appropriate reference to electromechanical, solid-state, and digital protective devices. Where required, the author resorts to the application of Excel and Mathcad. "Protective Relaying for Power Generation Systems is a recommended addition to every power engineer's library. The details may go beyond normal equipment protection requirements, but the depth of analysis, the data presented, and the qualitative discussion of all of the aspects involved in generator protection add a dimension not available in any single text. Reviewed by Stanley H. Horowitz in September/October 2006 Magazine of IEEE Power Engineering Society, Vol.4 No.5 Organizing material in a structure that allows for quick and easy reference, Protective Relaying for Power Generation Systems features an in-depth presentation of topics and specific information related to generators and motors. This book provides coverage of protective component considerations, including explanations of potential damage. It explores a broad range of subjects including detailed time decrement generator fault calculations and minimum excitation limits. The text contains Excel® and Mathcad® workbook constructions for performing protection-related calculations. This is a valuable resource for electric utility engineers and those working in the power industry and at generation facilities..
