In this second edition of their book the authors have extensively revised, updated and added to the material of the first edition. Extracts from their new Preface summarise these changes:
The first edition, published in 1992, has been used as a text book by universities and in industry courses throughout the world. It has been widely used as a reference book for practising protection engineers. As a result of the dialogue between the authors and the teachers, students and engineers using the first edition, it was decided to issue a second edition, incorporating material that would be of considerable value. The theory and fundamentals of relaying continue to constitute the major part of the book. In addition, the second edition includes concepts and practices that add another dimension to the study of power system protection.
A chapter has been added covering the monitoring of power system performance and fault analysis. It explains the use of oscillographic records for analysis and correction of disturbances, and for maintenance; and the application of synchronized sampling for fault recorders and other measuring systems using advanced timing technologies such as the GPS Satellite. The chapter on the protection of rotating machinery contains a new section covering power plant auxiliary systems. Distribution protection concepts have been expanded to bridge the gap between the protection of distribution and transmission systems. An account of the emerging technology of Static VAR Compensators to provide inductive and capacitive elements to regulate system voltage has been added to the chapter on bus protection. Finally, the Subject Index has been significantly revised to facilitate reference from both the equipment and the operating standpoints.
