Research and Markets: Numerical Distance Protection: Principles and Applications for Protection in Transmission Systems and Meshed Distribution SystemsDUBLIN --(Business Wire)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/d3979d/numerical_distance) has announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd's new book "Numerical Distance Protection: Principles and Applications, 4th Edition" to their offering. Distance protection provides the basis for network protection in transmission systems and meshed distribution systems. This book covers the fundamentals of distance protection and the specal features of numerical technology. The emphasis is placed on the application of numerical distance relays in distribution and transmission systems. This book is aimed at students and engineers who wish to familiarise themselves with the subject of power system protection, as well as the experienced user, entering the area of numerical distance protection. Furthermore it serves as a reference guide for solving application problems. For this fourth edition all contents, especially the descriptions of numerical protection devices and the very useful appendix have been revised and updated. Key Topics Covered: General principles of distance protection. Numerical distance measurement. Influencing signals. Device configuration. Application in distribution and industrial networks. Application in transmission networks. Protection settings. Calculation examples. Commissioning, testing and maintenance of protection systems Author: Gerhard Ziegler has published numerous national and international contributions in the area of power system protection. He served in international organisations for many years. From 1993 to 2001 he was the German delegate to the IEC (News - Alert) TC95 (measuring relays and protection equipment). He is past chairman of the Study Committee 34 (protection and local control) and Honorary Member of CIGRE. Gerhard Ziegler (former Siemens AG (News - Alert)) is past chairman of the Study Committee 34 (protection and local control) and Honorary Member of CIGRE. He is now working as a consultant.
