{"product_id":"9781119967781","title":"Reactive Power Compensation: A Practical Guide","description":"\u003cb\u003eThe comprehensive resource on reactive power compensation, presenting the design, application and operation of reactive power equipment and installations\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe area of reactive power compensation is gaining increasing importance worldwide. If suitably designed, it is capable of improving voltage quality significantly, meaning that losses in equipment and power systems are reduced, the permissible loading of equipment can be increased, and the over-all stability of system operation improved. Ultimately, energy use and CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e emisson are reduced.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis unique guide discusses the effects of reactive power on generation, transmission and distribution, and looks at the compensation of existing installations in detail. It outlines methods for determination of reactive power and answers the questions that arise when controlling it, for example, at parallel operation with generators. There is also a chapter devoted to installation, maintenance and disturbances.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey features include:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eA concise overview as well as deep specific knowledge on the segment power factor regulation and network quality\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTheory of reactive power compensation coupled with typical application examples such as car manufacturing, metal rolling and chemical works\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eChapter summaries with charts explaining how to put the theory into practice\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCoverage on the cost-saving aspects of this technology, including the efficient use of energy and the reduction of CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eA practical guide for electrical engineers and technicians in utilities, this is also essential reading for maintenance engineers, designers, electrical contractors, manufacturing companies, and researchers, also those in industry and planning agencies.
