Electrical network automation represents the cutting-edge of technology in electrical engineering. It means having an intelligent, interactive power distribution and transmission network. This book commences by reviewing the different communication protocols used in the electrical environment and then examines new protection techniques to increase reliability and performance while reducing costs. Implementation of local and remote control of switchgear including interlocking and intelligent load shedding are examined in some detail. The book concludes by examining and comparing different products and systems available for protection, control and automation of electrical power networks.
