Introdution to power systems

Electrical Power Systems

Power system engineering is special branch of electrical engineering. Power engineering can be mostly touch with transmission, distribution &technology.

The special responsibility of a power system is that, in addition to maintain the generation of electrical power at adequate level, the power has to be transmitted to the various load levels.

Power system engineer should have a knowledge regarding the operation & control of inter connected power systems, specially when inter connecting the local grid to form an integrated power pool.

Power engineering never falls down, because of energy crises all over the world. But lots of connecting problems , energy (voltage) converting problems , & planning operation problems may occur in the field while working.

There are three major classification in transmission lines.

1. Short lines
2. Moderately long lines
3. long lines
