Power Cable Technology provides a precise understanding of the design, manufacture, installation, and testing of a range of electric power cables from low-voltage, 1,000/1,100V cables to extra-high-voltage, 400kV cables with reference to future trends in the industry.

The authors mantra is: know your cable. Thus, the book begins with a comprehensive overview of power cable design and manufacturing through the ages, and then:

• Describes the characteristics of the materials currently used in the production of various power cables
• Explains how to calculate the die...

This book presents a comprehensive, ordered relationship between malfunctions and symptoms occurring in large turbogenerators. With this book, the operator and/or engineer in a generating station could identify underlying causes of a developing component degradation or a failure quicker, which could potentially save both time and money and reduce the trial-and-error troubleshooting process.

Large turbogenerators are the most important source of electricity. They can be found in thousands of power stations in every country. Forced outages, failures and degradation of these very...
