Electric Power Substations Engineering (The Electrical Engineering Handbook)

Great

I feel like this is a good book to cover the basic parts pieces of substation design. I'm just not sure how I can translate the material into practical day to day design work yet but that may have more to do with my inexperience than with the book.

This textbook will help people get familiar with an overview of a substation, and it is not a difficult book to understand at all. The writer does an excellent job of explaining as best as possible for any level engineer. I definitely recommend this for anyone starting their career in this industry.

It is a easy book to read, very clear and give you the main idea about the how the substation works.

It's just a descriptive text of power substations. No engineering tools can be obtained after reading this book. No designer will find out formulas, charts , etc useful for designing. Some good pictures but not a book to consult if problems arise. No mathematical foundations are provided. It can't be considered neither a text nor a manual. Just a collection of good general articles describing different aspects of power substations.

Gift

I'm a substation engineer and I was very disappointed by this book. It spends too much time explaining the equipment and little to no time explaining design processes. It states obvious things but does not give any real insight into how to do my job better. I was excited for this book and very disappointed with it once I got it. Total waste of money

The book was damaged when it arrived. So I had to return it.
