High-Voltage Test and Measuring Techniques [Paperback]

It is the intent of this book to combine high-voltage (HV) engineering with HV testing technique and HV measuring technique. Based on long-term experience gained by the authors as lecturer and researcher as well as member in international organizations, such as IEC and CIGRE, the book will reflect the state of the art as well as the future trends in testing and diagnostics of HV equipment to ensure a reliable generation, transmission and distribution of electrical energy. The book is intended not only for experts but also for students in electrical engineering and high-voltage engineering.

This all-encompassing, extensively illustrated guide explains how to apply IEC standards in testing high-voltage plant and equipment. It also draws on the authors extensive experience to sketch in some detail the likely future trends in the sector.

From the book reviews:

This book focuses on the specifics of HV test and measuring techniques. & This book is loaded with experimental setups and experimental results on HV testing and measurement. It provides practical information on the latest HV testing methods in a well-illustrated book with excellent technical details for engineers who perform HV tests on insulation, students in a HV power engineering course, HV laboratory test engineers, and HV laboratory managers.
